Jim, are you telling us the fishing is so bad, you do a little crocheting
while you're waiting for a bite?

no up its never that bad grin but my girl friend might do that.

one day i was griping about how hard it was to put a line through a swivel in a 
bouncing boat and Linda said hey will a small crochet hook help?
so i tried it and wow does it work well especially on those limp braided lines.
just poke the hook through the eye and hook on to the line pull it back through 
and there it is.

Thanks for the tip.  I bought four little threaders today, and I believe my 
secretary called them quilting tools, but they are extremely light, and one 
broke with my simply handling it.  
I am off tomorrow to fetch a new tackle box, as my 40 year old big box is 
simply past its prime.  It only had a twenty year warrantee, so I suppose I 
have gotten my money's worth out of it.

Yours Truly,

Clifford Wilson

[BlindHandyMan] needle threaders

2010-04-14 Thread clifford
Dear List Members:
You don't find this hillbilly doing much sewing these days, but I have 
found that the threaders work well for tying lures 
 on small fishing line.  When my fingers get cold and when I am using four 
pound fishing line, I have a difficult time hitting the small hole on the lure, 
but the needle threader is a great tool for completing that job.
I am fishing come Sunday, so I am off to the store to find some new 
threaders.

Yours Truly,

Clifford Wilson
