I got suckered into buying those at a fishing show a few years ago. Tried them a couple of times, went back to tying my knots the old-fashioned way. Still might have them around somewhere, if I don't, no big deal

I had some years ago. Never used them. But you would double over your line for about two inches. You would hook the loop that was formed in the crook of the wire (the bait being attached at the bottom of that bend.). You would hook your loop on that bend, take both tag ends and wrap around the wire shank about 5-10 times moving up the shank. After those wraps, you would pull the remaining tag ends (held together) through that other loop at the top. Super quick. Could tie the whole thing in less than 2 seconds. Not sure how secure it was though.

Ok. Because I had 3 minutes to kill. Here is a video demonstration using a paperclip and my headphone cords. Steven Spielberg better watch it because I am coming for him like perch and a cricket.
