i use a clear nail polish with sparkels in them to give the effect of scales and to attract fish , it also protects there paint job on spoons .
go to walmarts sea food section and get the styrafoam boxes free for worm raising beds or to store your fishing gear in . they ship the sea food in these boxes and then throw them out .
a cigarette but works as a good hook protector when your moving from one spot to another .
plain coin wrappers work great at keeping jigs and small lures from getting all tangled up and there easy to label and store .
a small magnet with a velcro strap attached can easyley be strapped to your rod tip to pick up a lure dropped in the water without having to go swimming for it .
use rubberbands to attach your sinkerts on a bottombouncing set up , it will break free if cought up in the rocks without stressing your line .
add rubberbands or ribbon strips to give your lures a little more action on the hooks .
got a trailer hitch stuck in the reciver ? i hook a chain to it and a tree and pull it taunt , not too tight thou . a couple hits with a hammer on the back of the hitch and the tention on the chain helps it to come out easy .
take a small plank with you when loading your boat back on the trailer , thoes jumps you make on a slippery surface are dangerous . walk it instead . paint it and sprinkle sand on it while it's still tackey for traction for your feet .
a strip of cardboard is great for your snelled hooks , put the barbs in the top of the tubes and a strip of tape to hold the lines in place .
a pvc tube , use a hacksaw blade to cut groves strait down about a 1/4" down and in 1/8" apart , put the barbs inside the tube , shanks out , a rubberband will hold them in place .
pill bottels and other similar containers are great to keep hooks , swivels , splitrings and other gear from getting all mixed together . label with a magic marker and some tape .
