| What is best product to do routine repairs on my Super D's? Need to repair torn fins, missing tail ends etc. I know they sell tail ends but what do you use to connect the replacement tails? |

Location: Detroit River | I like using Mend-It to repair my baits. Here's some videos of how some guys fix theirs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XksUYtgAlo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahtd2c33rdg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDFru9OKmv0 |

| I just use pieces of other old super d's or dawgs and "plastic weld" them back together. Works really well, I do it all the time. I have even added extra tails or increased the length also with this method. Doesn't always look the prettiest but the fish certainly don't mind. |

I also have 6 packs for tails for sale for Reg, Mag and Pounders. They work on most brands.

| Yeah but the problem is the colors mix,it would be way more pleasant to choose the colors we want.i don't think a lot of guys need a green tails replacement.Why don't you make 6 pack of the needed colors?
The curly sue tails are too long for the mag dawg,so a alternative would be greatly appreciate |

I think Andy with Shack Attack also sells tails in specific colors. Tyrant Tackle also sells tails I think that will fit major brands of Swimbaits. |

These can be used for swimbaits, you just need trim the ends to match up.
For my tails, I made the 6 color packs so guys could fix a lot of their lures they had in the fix up box... I thought these would sell better but they don't so once I am out of these I am done making them. I could repack them but I hardly have enough time to go to the bathroom everyday  |

| James, the reason they do not sell is because no one wants to buy 6 different colors at one time in one package, when some one only needs few white tails.
I bought your replacement tails and they are amazing. I only need orange and I will never use the others, it seems like a waste of money to me. Make a pack of 6 in one color and they will sell, they are amazing replacement tails. |

What I may end up doing is just parting them out and selling them 1 at a time until they are out. Just no time to redo the webpage for these. A 2 hour time slot for me to do this is about impossible right now. I am now getting into bass tackle so that is taking up most of my time. These tails are on my list, just very low priority right now since they don't pay much of the bills |
