BLACK RUBBERS

[WAHOONBOX]

BEFORE ANYONE THINKS THAT I AM SAYING THAT USING A RUBBERBAND TO SECURE A BALLYHOO IS BETTER OR MORE EFFECTIVE THAN USING MONEL IS PURE RIDICULOUS

DON'T GET ME WRONG HERE...MONEL IS THE #1 GEAR OF CHOICE FOR ME........BUT....IN CERTAIN CHARTERBOAT SITUATIONS I FIND THE RUBBERBAND TO BE FAST AND EQUALLY AS EFFECTIVE ESPECIALLY IN "SPEED RIGGING".........10 SECONDS PER BAIT IS WHAT I CALL SPEED RIGGING.....WHEN THE MEAT FISH BITE IS ON AND I MUST RIG 60-90 BAITS PER DAY SOMETIMES MORE

I PREFER A #16 RUBBER BAND (APPX: 1 1/2 INCHES LONG RELAXED)......

FOR YEARS I HAVE USED THE OLD STANDARD TAN COLORED RUBBERBAND....YES IT WORKED JUST FINE BUT IT LOOKS LIKE CRAP ON A BALLYHOO AND I AM NEVER CONTENT .....SO THIS YEAR I SWITCHED TO THE CALCUTTA RED RUBBERBAND AND YES IT TOO WAS VERY EFFECTIVE WITH THE MEAT AND BILLFISH....BUT I AM STILL LOOKING FOR A MORE "NATURAL" LOOK....AND THE RED RUBBERBAND SOMETIMES WILL FOOL YOU INTO THINKING YOU HAVE GRASS ON THE BAIT....

AND THATS WHEN I FOUND A BLACK RUBBERBAND ON A ROLLED UP NEWSPAPER IN MY NEIGHBORS YARD A COUPLE YEARS AGO...( IT WAS THE SUNDAY PAPER...$2.00 I SAVED... AND THEY WERE OUT OF TOWN) .....I WAS LIKE A KID AT CHRISTMAS QUICKLY THAWING OUT A BALLYHOO AND APPLYING THE NEW BLACK RUBBERBAND!


WOW.......TALK ABOUT BLENDING IN!!!....SORT OF TURNING A GUNMETAL GRAY AS IT STRETCHES UPON APPLICATION....GEEZUS H THRICE! CAMOFLAGE SO PERFECT THAT BLENDS IN WITH BALLYHOO COLORATION.......

if they are dry rotting, try storing them in a refrigerator, should take care of it.
