Any of you witnessed anything similar to your Sebiles: seem split along the new fin/ridge? Stored the whole time (since Spring) in tackle boxes on my boat. Storing in a truck or trunk might actually generate higher temperatures ( if that is the cause)? I sent pictures to Sebile, too.

Those the stock hooks and split rings? Even the wire looks rusted.

Stock everything!

A lot of smoke for it to have done that,,,,

I have a gags mambo minnow that I loaded with 10cc oaf water just like a redfin... well I stored it in the sun for about a week in a clear tackle tote, and the plastic has bloated to almost double the size... it just ballooned out and is really chubby. My guess is the plastic was softer, and the water inside being extremely hot produced pressure... if that is the case, I did a great job sealing the hole after loading it!!! I should post a pic... looks crazy

Stock everything!
"Sebile hardware - It's like going to Benny's to put new tires on your Ferrari."

I also sent them pics of hooks bending. Now I know to change the hardware. Still very effective,lots of bang for the money.

ive had a harder time straightening paperclips than their hooks... Like selling a ferrari with tires that will flatten if you go over 90mph, so you have to pay even more $$$ for tires that match the quality of the vehicle...
