    Best Glue for holding soft plastics

    What's the best glue you've found for holding soft plastics in place on your swimbait heads, chatterbaits, jigs, etc.

    I've been using the Loctite Super Glue Gel Control (the blue bottle) with a lot of success. Dries quick and doesn't leave white crusty stuff all over your bait. But it's expensive and doesn't last long.

    I've been using Pro's Soft Bait Glue for a long time. No reason to change for me.

    I second LocTite Gel in the blue bottle. Gorilla glue leaves a white residue.

    For holding baits in place Gorilla Glue does great but does indeed leave the white residue. Like others, I've gone to the LocTite Gel - I didn't realize how runny normal super glue was until I used the gel! This gives you significantly better control with a much lower chance of sticking your fingers together.

    Go to a Dollar store and get those pcks with 4-6 small tubes in it. They store easily in Plano boxes with worms, etc and can be thrown away when they clog. I used Locktite superglue for years, but got tired of the clogging problem and high cost per tube. It all works good on small cuts. )))))))))))

    The Loctite is great, also 3M products are superior to many others.
