I had used Pro-Soft bait glue but the bottles always clogged.

Now I have been using Locktite Super Glue in the "Gel Control" dispenser.
Very good and no drying up in the bottle.
I repair swimbaits with this stuff and it works good.

All the various super/crazy/krazee/glue products have the same active
ingredient -- cyanoacrylate. It is triggered to cure by the introduction
of moisture. If you can keep moisture out of the tip, it won't clog. If
you live where the average humidity is over 50%, it's going to clog no
matter what the dispenser design. If you live in the desert, it won't.

My solution is to have my wife buy the cheapest superglue type product she
can find in the dollar store, that is packaged in metal tubes. Metal tubes
are more impervious to moisture, and extend the unopened shelf life of
superglue from about 12 months to more than 18 months. She usually gets 10
tubes for a dollar. At a dime a tube, I don't really care if they clog. If
I use two or three in a weekend, what's the biggie?

I do the same thing, get the cheapest stuff I can find. However, I do have
a tip if you use the metal tubes.

If you are going to put it in your pocket, make certain that you don't have
anything that could possibly be sharp. It will puncture the tube and it's
possible to glue your hand in your pocket. However, if you're going to
attempt this, make certain that your pocket has a lot of pocket lint, it
will allow you to fish with both hands afterwards, but with a lot less
feel.......
