I carry a small crotchet hook with me when fishing. I have found this very helpful when trying to get backlashs out of your reel. Better than trying to pull that little loop out with your fat fingers. It is a real time saver when you are teaching beginers how to cast.The more time your line spends in the water the bettre your chances are of catching a fish.
