spinning rod "add-on"
Hello group
While thumbing through an old Field& Stream the other day at the dentists office I found an article on a gizmo that when its attached to a spinning rod it causes the retrieved lure or bait to hesitate on each turn of the handle. I though it was kind of a neat idea but probably just a con.Anyone ever heard of such a "add-on" Ken Blevins |

Yeah, it probably might work, but you have a similar device already. It's called a wrist, and if you bend it frequently, it causes the lure to hesitate or speed up. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |
