Step 1Cut the Hook

Cut the Hook
Squish the fish's body down the hook so that the wire's end will be recessed inside the fish once cut. Cut with wire cutters. Careful that the hook doesn't fly off when you cut it.

I hear those fake fish are toxic.

There is a serious amount of plasticizers in those things, in a tackle box you have to keep them separate from the hardbody lures because they will dissolve them.

Eh? Im pretty sure you are wrong. The only thing they are coated with is scent, and maybe they are impregnated with salt. If they "dissolve" plastic, then why do they come in a plastic bag, and sit in a plastic tackle box? Mine sit in between my crankbaits and my poppers. No problems at all.

you have to keep them away from the fake worm lures, but that's about it.. And those things dissove from just about any kind of oil . :O

Fishing lures are chock full o' lead. It looks wicked cool, but don't suck on it, hard as that may be to resist.

It's so pretty. But I was wondering if the fish is kind of sticky? It sounds like it might be from your description.
