Securing Glass Rattles To Lead Jig Hook Shanks

[titowoody]

I was wondering if anyone has used the thermal shrinking tape for securing glass rattles to their lead jig heads. I have tried a variety of glues available up here with not much luck.

Was thinking of heating the shrink tape with the rattle inside. I will try it out to see if it lasts longer than glueing.

I will be trying out some Tungsten bbs in brass tubing like Vodkaman mentioned. The higher density of tungsten should have a sound akin to the dinner bell I hope.

Thanks

I used the shrink tubes years ago. There was a company n Ill, that sold them. They worked well for me. Had to add a touch of glue to keep them from rolling on the hook shank however.

Thanks for the heads up on the glue BassnRandy. I will try this out for this weekends drift.

Cheers
