I got an English Whip Finisher from Ebay and not sure if I’m doin it correctly…I think its awkward.
Anyone here use one?

An English Whip Finisher is used the same as a Thompson-type Whip Finisher. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHGmuBSt0-Y for a video on how to use it.

I have tried to learn to use a Thompson for years. At the last few conclaves and fish ins NO ONE knew how to. even trying to follow the video posted above I can’t do it consistently. Good luck.

Howdy CoachBob,
I can use the Thompson really good but the English Finisher doesn’t have the extra liddle hook and it sorta throws me off whack.
Doin it by hand is Ok but still prefere the Mattereli or that style.
