storing plastics after dipping in JJ's magic??

Featured Replies

just got my first batch of JJ's (clear)....wow!! it's stong  :D

can't wait for the ice to thaw so i can use it

just wondering a couple things..

after dipping a plastic and fishing with it...is it ok to put back in bag with the rest of the same type plastics?  or do i want to keep it seperate?  or with other plastics i have dipped?

do i want to take the jar with me......or pre-dip some different plastics before i go and pack them together?  when not fishing in tournaments i fish exclusively from the bank.

is it going to smell up my whole tackle bag if i pre-dip??  and then after i fish and pack back up?   :-/

thanks....

what is best??

i've heard so much about this stuff....from everyone here...

now need some help please...

thanks

Ive heard people say JJ's lasts a  long time after you apply it to baits. I will have to disagree. I dipped some of my baits last June or July,and put them back into the original bags. I opened those bags recently and no scent...Nothing. Most of the color from the JJ's was gone too. These were baits that I never even used,never saw water.

Only 1 bag of baits survived the JJ's dip and that was a bag of Zoom tubes. I can open that bag up and it reeks something awful,the color remained on these as well.

Why the JJ's scent and dye is gone from my other baits I dipped and not from the Zoom tubes?...I imagine its because the JJ's got inside the tube as well when I dipped it.I just dont know for sure though.

I've used JJ's since last June...what I do is dip em then store them in the newer zip lock baggies. The smell will linger a bit in your tackle bag/box for awhile, but it will go away. I also try and get all the air out of the bag, and roll it up as much as I can..Note: do this outside, or in a well ventalated garage.. :D
