epoxy it back in place, or use gorilla glue. That stuff works.

Does it have two staples holding it together? Glue it or epoxy it if you still have the blade. I had one and the back blade fell off. Contacted Muskie Buster and they took care of the problem. They are putting two small screws in the blades and assured me that this will fix the problem.

Luke is a good guy, and will take care of you if one of his baits falls apart. Contact Musky Buster thru their website or catch Luke at one of the shows. As far as the epoxy throwing off the action...no. I have a Stomper that had the tail come loose after casting it onto a rock reef. I used epoxy to hold the blade in place and put a light coating over the entire tail section and it still works. In fact it's my best topwater bait still to this day, five years and several big fish after the repair.
