I bought a '74 Minifish with a steel bailer that is seized (both collar and the bailer cap) . Doused it with PB Blaster over the course of two weeks. Still won't budge.
I'd grind it off with a Dremel wheel, but on a Minifish the bailer is sunken into a recess which doesn't give much clearance along the sides.
Any advice on removal/replacement? For now my functional bailer is a 1/2 gallon milk jug cut in half.?

Six bucks for the Essentra plug... and 15 bucks to ship... ouch. ?But better than the cost of a replacement OEM brass one.

The link from Essentra looks promising; I'll let everyone know how it worked out when mine arrives. Thanks for the tip!
