IneedAnewScreenName-98161861 Posted April 8, 2022 Posted April 8, 2022 So Im just starting to get myself ready for the new season. Just got a a reup on some jigs so I started there. Looks like I left a couple CB with the trailer on em. Would you keep those or throw em out? Here's how mine were stored. They look pretty straight. I can't really see any kinks or anything. 1 Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted April 8, 2022 Super User Posted April 8, 2022 They look good to me. Unless they have peyronie's disease, I'd probably use them. 1 2 Quote
Super User Bird Posted April 8, 2022 Super User Posted April 8, 2022 I've never removed a trailer from any bait unless it's worn out. Years ago when pork trailers were popular then yes, they would rust hooks if left on. 2 Quote
Super User casts_by_fly Posted April 8, 2022 Super User Posted April 8, 2022 the salt in plastics will eat at some hooks, so I'd just inspect them before use. Pretty hard to rust through enough to make a jig hook unusable, but better be safe and check Quote
Super User T-Billy Posted April 8, 2022 Super User Posted April 8, 2022 For some reason the title made this pop into my warped mind. ? OP I'd use those trailers. Quote

If the salt in today's plastics is rusting your hooks...you got some cheap hooks! 1 Quote
