thanks trophy appreciate it
The WD-40 is very popular in the UK. Use it to spray your rod rings, hooks, lures and trebles, etc to prevent corrosion. However, do not spray WD-40 in your reels as it will remove grease. Rather ensure that your reels are properly greased and wash them (rinse not dunk!) with fresh water after use, and use a proper reel oil to lubricate and protect. You can use WD-40 to remove all the old grease when servicing your reels.
Many anglers believe that the WD-40 actually services as an attractant when sprayed on bait and lures. Of course there is a lot of skeptisism on this matter! Check out the Yahoo topic: Has anyone used WD40 as a Fish Attractant?
Edit: Apologies for going off topic on this really good thread, I should probably post it in the original Tackle care thread.

Hiya jaccil,
You can make up the bait any way you want. Sometimes I leave the bait as a 'flapper', it's just on that day there were plenty peckers around so I wanted a tight ball of bait to last a bit longer in the water.
I cut the flaps just intothe guts so this style also releases alot of smell and juices into the water.
The skirt will also flap and move around so there should be alot of movement on this rig.
