Posts: 16632 Location: The desert | It's been out of water for a day or so now and I can hear water sloshing around inside.....Not sure where the hole in it is, any ideas on fixing? | ||

Posts: 691 Location: nationwide | Drill a 3/32" or 1/8" hole in it and let the water drain out .... . it may take awhile though .....unless you can roll up paper towel small enough to wick the stuff out, then fill the hole with silicone. I had a few of these and it seemed to work. I drilled the hole in the bottom right ahead of the joint. Corey Meyer Edited by muskymeyer 9/17/2007 4:38 PM | ||

Posts: 2011 | Someone on another post mentioned -Drill hole fill with "great stuff"- to keep weight from coming loose - might be worth a try. | ||

Posts: 5874 | Ditto on the drill the hole and fill with Great Stuff. That will make the bait run better, and no more water can get in. Edited by Shep 9/18/2007 8:02 AM | ||
