    Find some kind of round tube to fit inside the bag when filling it.
    Stuff the bag through the tube, any residue and mess will come out with the tube rather than smearing the inside of the bag.
    As already said, the cleaner the bag the better seal.

    Best fix is to make the bags bigger and be carefull when filling the bag to keep the seal area clean and try not to bag dripping wet stuff.

    I double seal anything damp also.
    Good advice that, I also dry the fish or whatever on paper towels before it goes in the bags to be sealed. Seems to give a better finished product.
    Currently have a Sunbeam one, single seal only. It has about 60 seconds reset time once you have done a few bags. Not something I thought about when we brought it.
    Only god knows how much fish its done along with 8 deer, a heap of goats, a few pigs and sheep.
    Well worth it
    its warm
