Inexpensive Must Have on Boat

towel

In the summer.....a biting fly swatter

Is that PVC base homemade?

Oh my God yes I can't stand getting bit When I wear shorts..(no more shorts when fishing)..
Also my homemade brush grabbers!!!

So what are some inexpensive must haves on the boat. Mine are these "jig savers. Since I have made a few with the barrel swivel and purchased the Water Gremlin snap on sinkers my recovery rate is about 90%. If you use braid and a barrel swivel with fluorocarbon the larger snaps will slide over the barrel swivel. I feel that it doesn't disturb the brush pile nearly as much as pulling on a jig trying to pull the hook or breaking it completely off. I use both 1/2 and 3/4 oz. There have been times when I have had to drop two weights in order to save a jig. Yes there are times when no matter what you do the jig just doesn't come lose and you have to break the whole rig.
