    TIP 4 CAROLINA EYES ONLY

    JUST KIDDING....I HOPE YOU BOYS NORTH THE DMZ LINE WILL TAKE NOTICE AND PAY HEED TO THIS SIMPLETON TIP FOR IT WILL SAVE YOU MUCH GRIEF ON YOUR NEXT UNEXPECTED WAHOO VISIT.

    I THOUGHT I WOULD OFFER THIS TIP UP ONCE AGAIN... THIS SIMPLE TRICK THAT CAROLINA BOYS HAVE BEEN USING FOR YEARS

    MOST OF YOU ALREADY USE AND KNOW THIS METHOD OF WAHOO PROOFING THE MONO LOOP IN THE HOOKS EYE...SO THIS IS A REFRESHER FOR THOSE THAT HAVE NEVER SEEN IT

    HOPEFULLY THIS WILL KEEP YOUR NEXT WAHOO FROM BITING YOUR RIG OFF AT THE HOOK

    BUT THE REAL TIP OF THE DAY HERE IS THE PLASTIC ILANDER STORAGE CONTAINER FOR THE PRE--CUT SHOTS OF #8 S/S MALIN....SO SIMPLE A CAVEMAN...I MEAN A BOXMAN CAN DO IT.

    These are the simple things that make a difference, every mono rig I put out is rigged this way. Thanks for the tip Marty.

    It is important to note that normaly when you crimp a hook that you come through the top of the eye and down. When you do this rig you come from the under side of the hook and up. If you dont your pin will push your leader off to one side or the other. In other words your tag end has to be on the top side of the crimp. Great tip Marty.
