DR609BASS Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Sorry I hit post before I was done haha. The tails on the swim baits are bent from the way it was packaged and sent to me. Does anyone boil swim bait tails to fix this? I've seen videos of people doing that to regular Huddleston but the 68 special have softer plastic. Also how long if anybody does this. If someone can help that would be awesome thanks.

DaBehr Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) You can put them (dip just the bent tail) in boiling water to straighten them. Edited February 26, 2014 by DaBehr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR609BASS Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 OK guys thanks I just worried because the 68s seem to be made of a softer plastic then regular 6 inch ones. Have you guys done this the the 68 special version?How long should I dip them in 30 seconds? And hang them by some line to and air dry right?

gone2long Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 I've never dipped that particular bait but give it a good 20 count and that should do it and hanging is prolly the best method. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
