Has anyone tried these ? Seen them on eBay and seen the videos on YouTube and they seem ok, simple to set up and then leave hidden while you go off and do other stuff, cost about £6-8 on eBay so not too bad, but wondered if anyone had tried them before I bought a few
I have a stash of them still, taking some of them to the dartmoor meet later today.
lol i`d not heard of these till i read this post! just watched a few vids on you tube they look very affective!

T try or just t show round ? Let us know the opinions either way, very tempted there is a guy selling 6 for £30 think I'll be getting some
If your using these for fishing you might want to look at these speedhooks

They issue this to the US military in there emergency kit.
Almost world wide these have been banned for competition fishing because they always hook the fish.

The Yo-Yo fishing reels are good for snaring as well.
