Nope! just use some yarn on the hook with a corky heck of a lot easier than trying to get the rags all done up!

If you don't you will need them sometime. Nothing worse than the guy down river who is crushin em with the gear you left at home. They're easier and quicker to make than a jig and weigh next to nothing so why not?
