Love that trap! As stated above replace the hooks and you have a fish catcher.


Lol...that cat escaped out of the bag a LONG time ago.....but it is a timeless fish-catcher.......with the proper hooks wink

and what are the proper hooks?

They don't. It's a mystery.
But Booyah took the reigns and is producing these:




The Hard Knocker

Is it the same blank and same rattle? I assume notbecause it say's "hard knocker". Does that mean it has one big rattle like the "one knocker"?


One rattle. Like the old Cordell Hot Spots, when you were lucky enough to get one where the weight was loose.

Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

Just my personal preference, but the Gammy EWG Short Shank 2x Magic Eye or the Owner STX-38 Zo Wire are extremely solid options
