Dark Sleeper - wormproof?

Post by Johnny A » Fri Oct 04, 2019 2:04 pm

Is the Dark Sleeper a reactive plastic or is it a "worm proof" situation?
Thanks!

Non reactive in my experience, although I wouldnt put it in a bag of Zman.

I've not seen any issues in that regard.

Thanks. I didn't think so. When MB uses a different formulation for the plastics they put the baits in a self-contained tray like the Cat's Kill worm or Hazedong, etc.

I'll tell you something that's not worm proof, and that's a Daiwa spool case, as in the the screw top original packaging. I threw a spent Keitech in my backpack next to a couple of spare spools and looked again a week later to find the Keitech had eaten holes right through the cases. Strangely enough, the bait didn't seem affected. Maybe it was the "Squid Scent."
This is the way.

I had the spool case react with a Storm WildEye Swimbait. Ate a small hole
