Line keepers for spare spools

[Prairieschooner]

Go to the DOLLAR STORE and look in the cosmetic/hair products aisle. There are packages of fabric covered rubber bands, I guess they're used to gather hair in a pony tail(?), that are great for the purpose of encirling tippet spools. Best of all is the price ... $1.00 for about 50 bands.

Thanks, but it ain't about tippet spools.

Ordered up some of the Grey's thingies off ebay. I'm happy.

Whoops! My mistake.

Allan, to expand on your mistake, those elastic bands with the rivet part of a pop rivet removed from the stem and poked through the band are great for tippet spools. You thread your line through the rivet and it unrolls only as much as you need, at least most of the time.
