Location: Ft. Wayne Indiana | The best way to repair a bulldawg is to heat up a knife blade, as hot as you can get it. Put the knife blade into the cut and let it set for about 3-4 seconds. Pull the knife out and put the bulldawg in cold water as soon as possible.
I have saved many bulldawgs this way.

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Also try a little hand/kitchen torch from Williams-Sonoma. $40 may sound steep, but if you fix 4 dawgs, you are already paying for it. I use this little bad boy, and though most of my fishing partners wont let me bring it with me in the boat, it works like a champ.

| I use a vise grips and a utility knife blade over the flame of my kitchen stove. The blade melts both sides (the existing and new part of the tail). I melt berkley power bait tails on my cut off bulldawgs. Hold the melted repair together for about five seconds and you're good to go. Custom make your own dawgs. They are easy to fix and catch even more fish. Capt bigfish |
