DIY STONFO TYPE TWIN NEEDLE BAITING AID

[Rockslide]

So I saw this baiting aid and thought it could help to present nice and straight baits as I sometimes struggle to present straight baits.
Off to a friend I went to have this 3D printed. 1.5mm Stainless steel welding wire for the needles.
The two halves will be attached to each other with epoxy. Needles will be neatly trimmed to desired length.
I made two. One with needles 5mm apart (prawn size baits) and the other with 12mm apart (sardine fillet/cutlet sized baits)




Should it not work, I wasted at most R20.00 and less than an hour


What do you think? Has anyone used such a device before?

And the 12mm version.

Big question......does it really work ?

Seems perfectly sensible. I don't fish with bait so I'm really not sure how critical the shape of the bait is but it seems cunning (and simple) enough to make it easier to apply cotton.
