Title: Sokkou knot tool
Post by: Lionel on December 11, 2012, 08:26:12 PM

Because I've had a stroke and unable to use my right side properly I find this tool handy for tying leader to braid...Youtube has a good how to use.

Fair dinkum

I am getting old cause I have a shite time tying on new leader in anything but great sunshine.

Will have to have a look out for one cause I end up doing them all in the what I call dark with a heap of cussin

Cool toy.
I'm finding flouro coloured line and braid is more useful the older you get as the eye sight fades ;)
