One day!! 0 Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 G'Day everyone, first time post( probably a stupid one at that ha), but can anyone give me advise on stopping lure hooks and rings from going rusty? After each lure sesh i clean them at home in fresh water and let dry before putting them away.The reason i ask is that i'm fed-up with having to buy new hooks, since rust spreads like the plague and one becomes many within weeks.Any help would be great.One Day!!

Ranger 48 Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 I also put the small sachets of dessicant (silica gel) in with my lures to absorb any moisture. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
