Plug Maintenence
 

Quick question for everybody....I got a Bernzy's Surf Howdy last year and the paint has chipped a little from the hooks digging into it in my surf bag. Is there some type of sealant I can dab on the dings to make sure it doesn't get waterlogged or what not? Thanks

Just fish the hell out of it GTF.....its just got a little character and the fish won't mind....just keep it moving and the water won't be a factor. :)

clean it of with rubbing alcohol to dry it out and to clean off any oils, then brush some 30 minute epoxy over the holes.

or some colored /clear fingernail polish.

I was wondering about fingernail polish! Thanks guys, I don't care about the marks-the more personality, the better-I just didn't want the plug to get wrecked!

GTF,

That plug had been sealed before paint and clearcoat. You could fish it with out any problems. You could use nail polish or Devco 30 min epoxy if you want to.
I hope the LARGE beat the hell out of it for you. Then the plug will have mojo!
After that, keep fishing it>

Words from the man....fish it! :laugha:

Picked up a "few" Howdy's myself this weekend , after all the compliments last season and seeing all the wannabee's , figured , why not give 'em a try! :D johnny

You know what they say...."Once you go Howdy...you never go back!" :laugha:
