Saw this in a catalog today-

Catalog was "The Grommet"

Quote-"Line Welder System

Yield a virtually indestructible fishing knot without actually tying one. This fishing line welder attaches the line to the hook, securely, in 30 seconds.
$199."
Unquote.


Picture shows a "thing" about the size of a flashlight with a flip-up lid. Looks like a piece of heat shrink tubing around doubled line after it is put through a hook eye.

I can loose a lot of flies if improperly tied for $200. Someone has to be kidding on that thing.

:rolleyes:

Well, I've sort of got the knots I tie pretty well down pat after all these years. Think I'll stick to my old methodology.

I sent it to a friend of mine who said,"Hmmmmm, could you do your own leaders with this?"
Could you?
