    I gave you the 2 back you let me use, they didn’t go with your shack did they?

    No…I was thinking about that. I gave them to a couple people to keep/try.

    I deploy them now everytime I go!

    At the minimum for me they are a huge confidence booster to be in an area to set em up and even to hole hop around the area and then come back to the weeds and pop a few…

    I have noticed with them out in the basin while hole hopping, if I can pop 2 o 3 fish out of a hole, I can usually double it in the hole that has the reel weeds in..

    They are spendy but they are worth every penny! Especially if your the guy who think he has everything but doesnt have reel weeds!
    I can set em out off the weedline where the fish are holding on the edges…

    You can suspend em off the bottom out over the basin spots.

    They really work well on the gravel and mud…just saying…

    one on the camera…and i pick up all i can find at garage sales/ classified ads/ etc…. i make a fairly good size “weed bed” (i’ve got close to 40 stalks)… usually in a “Z” shape, then drill holes around it…really works if the fish are roaming, they’ll stay with you all day!
