Featured Replies

I'm looking for the thing that keeps hooks from rusting.I don't recall the name of it.Who sells it?

Thanks,Bill

Rust inhibitors or silica gel packets

Tw has something called bullfrog... I think. Does it work.... dunno.

I hear of people using chalk, and Zink is scientifically proven. It's what they use on container ships and such.

try wd-40. It has been known to be a fish attractant as well.

i can't remember which pro i saw recommend it but... don't take ur hooks out of their original package.  they will still be protected and you can even wipe them off if you open ur box in the rain

WD-40 does not recommend using their product as a fish attractant.

Flambeau makes the Zera-rust Tabs and Plano has one too but I don't remember what it's called. I'm sure you can find it on their website though.

Put a piece of sidewalk chalk in there.  It will absorb the water. I had read about it one time and tried it and it worked for me.  You may have to switch it out after a while, but it seems to work pretty decently

I grab silica packs from new shoes and from stuff at work. I have a couple dozen floating around my tackle closet. Never had rust in any hooks

Go to your local Pharmacy and ask if they could save the silica packets from pill bottles for you.
