BuckMaxx Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I have seen a few guys talk about using a worm blower bottle on their huds. Can someone explain the concept or the idea behind doing this? Thanks BigBaitThirty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganBassman Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I personally haven't done that to any of my hudds but the concept sounds good. Maybe they pump air into the tail the the tail goes up higher so it looks like the trout is feeding. Following this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc626 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 I use it when the hollow bladders fill with water or just deflate from old age. I insert the needle then inflate. Before I remove the needle I have a toothpick with 1-2 drops of super glue ready to go. Make sure it's done simultaneously. I never, ever do this with new baits. It's something I do during the off season with old baits while repairing or retouching lures. I do suppose that you can do this while on the water. However the bladder is wet and it may not work. I use the Lindy brand. When you apply the glue make sure it doesn't run, use a toothpick. Top Ramen and bassing305 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassing305 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 (edited) Interesting I might try this to one of my Huds Edited January 18, 2016 by bassing305 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derds126 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Worm Blower tuned Hudds? Sounds like a good idea to me. Nose up. Nose down. Better buoyancy for easier retrieval over cover. I think Marc is right with the simultaneous seal on the super glue. Definitely worth trying and messing around with. marc626 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattlures Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 You cant just inject air into sold plastisol. It wont work. There needs to be a hollow space first. That hollow space is already going to be filled with air unless it gets filled with water then it would work just like marc626 says. marc626, ATFISHING1234, BigSlant and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the rescue again...would be nice if the other bait makers would speak up with knowledge and not tears like usual...awesome costumer service as per usual Matt...not even your baits...bravo timcauliffe, Tealsprig and marc626 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
