Something Nifty
« on: August 12, 2019, 08:29:40 AM »
One of the guys in our club made this nifty hook clip.
Made of a type of flexible rubber
Makes it simple to clip your lure into instead of fumbling for my glasses to find the clip.

Cable ties tend to leave sharp ends which gets a bit irritating to be grabbing hold of in the course of casting all day. That rubber ring looks the business

7/10 , also showed me a jiffy trick . With the jigging . Just loop a short piece of rope around your reel foot .


Very handy , for keeping your jigs from bumping your rod , when on the run ....
