| OK I love the baits with the plastic curytail on them, but what's the best way of attching them? Drill a hole in the back of the lure, cut the head off a nail or screw and insert it, then super glue everything? |

| Looks like they put them in reversed. I'll have to look at them at the store. |

Location: Freedom, WI | A number of ways to do it depending on the size of the tail. For small tails superglue works (or some lure glue) that is I think is how Phantom does it. Tyrant uses a kind of a ribbed peg and glue I have been told. Cut off screws are used by some along with a hole in the back with a screw on others. I have used springs for half a dozen years or so on baits that I put tails on but you need to have the right spring for the size of tail. On the latest version of the HardHead I use drywall anchors (has to be the right type). Springs and anchors have advantages and disadvantages but both do the job, I am getting some custom made springs that I believe eliminates some of the disadvantages of springs. But you have to realize that on the large HardHead it has to hold on a full size Kalin tail not just the end. |
