Cajun Fishing Line Reviews:
Here is a product we would like you guys to give your reviews on in the yahoo groups.We would like reviews from both the Saltwater and Freshwater Fishermen.
How to build a Rope Gaff ;
Theses rope gaffs are great for spots where you can,t get the fish up out of the water like
with bridges, high docks, and big rock Jettys.
heres what you will need to build one : you need a long rope , try for something thin with a good holding power
of at least 30 lbs ,, some guys use crab trap ropes ,,, you also need a swivel snap with a wide open ring (see
picture below) and a weighted treble hook . ( see picture below) and split ring in large size,,
How to place it all together :
tie one end of rope to the weigthed treble hook. in the same hole as the rope place a snapped swivel only
tie the non snap side to the terble hook (i use a split ring to join them) ,,, leave the snap side empty .
How to use : once you get your fish close enough to the dock or pier ,, snap the swival over your line ..
let go of it and it will slide down your line to the fishes mouth ,, pull up on your rod a bit this makes the fishes mouth
open and the treble hooks will go in his mouth ,, gave the gaff rope a good tug and this set the treble hook in ,,,, now you
can lift your heavy fish up by using the rope instead of your rod line ,,,
