I see a Bunyan Bug.
Sorry. Did this on my iPad, and, for some reason the paste function isn't working correctly.
Will try again.
Trying again: there is a short video on the web page.

Byron,
I have looked at these before, thought about buying a couple kits for donations to raffles, may still do that. This is a good idea, if you like to fish with yarn indicators. I know some on here have seen these and mentioned they would make their own version. As for me, if I wanted one for myself I would simply buy the actual outfit and use that as it is a tried and proven system, but that is just how I think. Now that you got me to thinking about it again, I think I will buy a couple for raffle prizes. Thank for the reminder. :)

Make a slip knot in the leader, place a piece of wool into knot, draw knot tight. What's the big deal?
I have used it off and on for a couple of years now and it is a good idea. It doesn't put a kink in your leader like a knot does, is light, and is easily adjusted for position. I haven't been impressed with the floatability of the wool that comes with it, though. I've used it straight as it comes in the package and have also pre-treated it, along with using on-the-stream floatants. Using poly yarn, in my experience, is a better option. I think it is a great system for slow or flat water.

Allan, the slip knot leaves kinks in the leader, which this other system doesn't. If that doesn't bother you, great.
Small knit picker and some tubing! Voila! Great idea - I'll be picking up an extra knit picker. ($2.00??)
You beat me to it ,Tig. For those that don't know here is a picture of the knit picker...should work just fine.
