Re: Fish stringer: bad loss!

I've been knocking up some hardwood spikes drilled with 2 holes with some nylon attached to a shackle....either for the belt of the float...lost my stainless one and can't 'just' order a new stringer without the temptation to fill the shopping cart.......it totally failed on me last night though when attached to my belt but left the nylon with fish attached...lucky.
I should't be such a skinflint!

For a while a had a dogs coller sorta thing attached to my handle (sounds well crap but it worked...just) that would take three fish and the rest i'd crudely attach to the excess of my weight belt.....crap system though....soon changed when i started getting good catches.
Although on the plus side it made me lot more selective and fussy.
