That is a nice principal that everyone can use to modify, using their own material they have available!
So simple, yet so, so, so brilliant!
Rubber bands is various breaking strains work well too
Good idea!
Great hack - thanks for sharing.
You bet!
Always great content.
Great tip - definitely will use
Loved it !!!! Thank you so much!
Thanks that was an amazing tip.
Awesome idea
That is a great tip!!
I will definitely have to try this
You always have good information but I also like how you get to the point and always have a cheerful attitude. I have a fishing playlist and have saved a few of your videos, thumbs up.
I appreciate that!
Thanks for sharing
Nice tip Steve! You've been holding out on us! 🇺🇲👍
Awesome suggestion!! Fish rocks a lot and seem to learn a new language as I'm losing rigs! Definitely trying this next time!! Thanks!
cool easy and effective!
Some anglers pass the mainline through the egg sinker and tie a knot. The knot will pull through the sinker if it gets snagged. But the knot is strong enough to allow for lob casting.
Thanks for that great tip!!
Good idea
I always just used lighter line to the weight but, this is a better idea!
Great tip, will sure be trying that one ... Thanks, Keep'em coming ...
More to come!
Great idea
Thank you! 😊
That's a darn good idea! I usually tie a perfection loop on my sinker side and a double surgeon's loop to my line. The perfection loop is weaker and it breaks first saving the rest of the rig by only losing the sinker. You are right though, the pulling on the line so hard to break the weight off does put stress on the line, the rod and your reel. I like your idea better 👍
Great tip!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice!
This is seriously genius
That's genius!
I use paper clips to do the same thing. They are cheaper and more common than the bobby pins. I use egg sinkers for everything that needs a weight. Thanks for the tips in your videos.
Great tip!
yup great idea sir ,i also seen them using paper clips to do the same thing
Great idea
You can do what I'd call a semi-fixed Carolina rig by running a decent rubber band through the hole on a bank sinker and then sort of cow hitch it over the line. It can be made into a sliding version with pieces of a coffee stirrer.
Thanks for the tip!
Neat idea , next time I fish in places subject to snags I try it . I wonder if some stainless safety wire or tie wire would work as well .
As long as it is stiff enough to withstand the force of the cast, it should work
Really great idea!!! We'll have to start using that tip. I frequently use that type of rig and try to avoid rocks and other jagged things because it takes too much time to re-rig it and there is limited space for tackle in the yak. Doing this, all I have to have is a bag of sinkers 😁. My wife prefers a Carolina rig -- but so long as you aren't trying to make long casts, it should work fine and have the advantage of being able to swap sinkers a lot more easily.
You can vary the tension on the sinker by how much you bend the bobby pin. You just gave me an idea on how to modify this for a Carolina Rig. Thanks!
@@KayakhacksFishing I was thinking about using the closed end of the pin as a sliding sinker sleeve. It would need to be done in a way which doesn't slip over the swivel (maybe use a bead or big swivel) and doesn't tangle during the cast. But for short casts from a boat, I don't believe tangling would be an issue and I think it would be simple enough to find a way to prevent slipping past the swivel (or flying apart on a long cast). In addition to not losing rigging, your hack makes it infinitely easier to change weights on any fishing rig.
@@2reelyakrz481 lol! You and I are on the same page. Put the pin where the bullet would normally go, add a bead and you have a less snagable carolina. Kind of like a mix of zika and carolina. I need to try it to see if it works well.
Put a rubber band between the bottom loop and the weight. The if the weight gets caught, pull until the rubber band breaks.
Good tip!
What a great idea ...will save me lots of aggravation... thanks so much
Use garbage bag twist tie to attach weight Only 2 or 3 twists .... just enough twists to hold it on Few enough twists to slip when tensioned. Probably cheaper than Bobbie pins
One can also use a rubber band.
Great point!
Ahh! Got it. Good idea!
I am seriously looking at purchasing a 2018 Coosa FD are you still happy with yours. Also where do you keep your fish that you intend to keep? I thought I would ask on your latest video hoping you would see it and respond.
I love the Coosa. It is perfect for where I fish. The single feature that would make me buy it again is the retractable drive unit. I hit oyster beds and sandbars all the time. Without that feature, it would be a huge hassle to pull the unit, move over or off the obstacle, and re-engage. Be sure you get the new orange rudder - it is a game changer in terms of tracking and turning.
How do you keep your fish?
Sorry for the late reply. I put them in a Dollar Store cooler bag and put them in my front hatch
Took awhile to share this one
I appreciate you taking the time to do that.
How to you keep the fish you take home?
We can only keep one a day. I put it in a Dollar Store Hot/Cold bag with some of the reusable ice packs. Here is the rundown on the bag - ruclips.net/video/WMZv6dmur94/видео.html
Why not just the your sinkerbon with 4lb test mono. And learn how to not strain your rod when you need to break your line.
That would work
Good idea, but they can always wear a rubber band, that's what I've been using for a long time, greetings for all fishermen
How does that work? I am not familiar with that approach.
I think he means making a loop with the ruberband through the surgeon loop and inside the egg
