Save your Fine Rubber Jigs

The Savior to Rubber Jig fishermen everywhere.

If you are a fan of fishing with Fine Rubber bass jigs, an accessory that is an absolute must have is the new Zappu Special Rubber Conditioner. Living Rubber jigs are becoming very popular in the US, but in Japan they have been fishing with Fine Rubber jigs for a long time. The major problem with this Fine rubber material is that it is super soft and will melt easily. The Living Rubber will sometimes have a chemical reaction with the contact of other harsher materials (lead, plastic worms, ect.), or if you leave these jigs in the sun to long they will molt together. This creates a giant mess, not to mention the fact that these hand tied jigs cost over 6 dollars. To prevent this problem, one of the leading Japanese fishing companies ZAPPU, created a liquid that protects the jig and prevents this mess from happening. Personally, I have not noticed that using the Zappu Special Rubber conditioner repels the fish from holding onto the bait. Short strikes are not an issue, being as the rubber absorbs the product right away. So if you have invested money in these fancy Japanese Fine Rubber Jigs I would suggest making the small purchase of the special rubber conditioner. You can find it at Lees Global Tackle under the Fishing Accessories category.
