Title: Bait Buoy
Post by: Mossy on May 03, 2012, 03:47:06 PM: Where have these been my whole life? Picked one up today, nice to keep worm harnesses untangled, at least that's what I'm using it for.

Post by: Bone_Collector on May 04, 2012, 05:34:05 PM: I use the pipe insulation foam for all my leader rolls and the barbed hooks do pull out some foam from time to time the hooks are not near as bad on the foam as a guy would think! Plus if you go to the dollar store and get one of those foam rolls that the kids use in the swimming pool you can cut them to what ever size you want!
