Rust...how to stop it?

I try to take good care of my gear but I keep having rust issues with my lures. As soon as I get home I rinse everything down with fresh water and usually lay it out in the sun to dry. Seems like no matter what I do the hooks on my lures (gotcha, etc.) always seem to start growing this light brown fur within a couple uses...what can be done to stop this? Thx

Only stainless hooks will get you the no rust. A little rust will not hurt....helps to kill the fish quicker!

the best way to do it is if u want get u thing a gulps, drain all the juice out and dip your hooks in it everytime u are done fishing, it is oil based and it will lub your hooks for you or u can just go to waltmart and get some lil rubber worms and cut them in half they are oil bassed to

Anise based fish formula works too.
