Although bait elastic is super strong and durable, it does begin to degrade when exposed to bait juices, rain, saltwater, and UV light from the sun. Over time these elements break down the bait elastic making it brittle and weak. This can lead to premature snapping when baiting up or worse still, odd ends breaking off rendering the elastic useless. This strong, plastic container is made from opaque plastic and a click top lid. The opaque plastic helps to protect against external elements and block out sunlight. The click top lid features a centred hole, which the elastic can be run through so the angler can bait up without removing it. A simple but effective design to keep your bait elastic in top shape.
