| Last summer I had tails fall off several hell hounds for no apparent reason. What are you guys using to put replacement tails on? |

| Been there and tried multiple super glues only to have the tails fall off again. I've tried Super Glue, Loctite and Fisherman's Glue. I have scraped the surface of the bait. All no luck. I've had two buddies try on these baits coming up with the same problem, tails won't stick. I'm at a loss. |

Location: Athens, Ohio | Super Glue brand says not to use in water. I've used Krazy Glue on tails for years with no problem They make mini-tubes that have just the right amount. A quick rub with sandpaper first does help in the prep process. m |

Location: Germantown, WI | I Use this product- i just copied over the marketing statement about it. Can get it on Team Rhino site for $12... It's the accelerator that makes it work really well in my opinion!
Hawg Seekers Tackle Ultimate Instant Glue System/ This is the Ultimate Instant Glue System from Hawg Seekers Tackle. It's a quick option to replace tails and fix broken baits. When using the glue and accelerator the bond will setup in 8 seconds. |

Location: MN | I drill a hole and glue in a small piece of bucktail shaft sticking out the rear of the bait. Then I attach the tail with gorilla glue. They stay on very well this way. |
