Default Zman Plastics Bent.....
Yo. Anyone have any good ways to to straighten out Jacked up Zman plastics? I have a shit ton of them that have flattened out or bent over the years. I hate to just buy new because it's probably 25 bags or more.

Have you tried laying them out and heating with a hair dryer on low?

I keep several bags in my car trunk. Never had them deform before. A few weeks back I had a few that has stuck together and some were starting to curl.
They pull apart OK. I used a few and when I ran the shaft of the hook through them the straightened.
