#9476, "RE: Problems with Mattlures...." In response to In response to 0
I had a similar problem with my first Matt's bluegill bait, but since then I have learned to glue the small tears early and keep them mended. I caught 30 or more fish on the one that finally fell apart, so it's not like it was defective. They are very resilient baits, but tending to them makes them last a lot longer.
