Here's another one......everyone uses Q-Tips for something or other. I use them on the bench for cleaning reels , guns etc. Buy the ones with the plastic shaft. After use, cut the ends off, cut the shaft in half and tie on some heavy thread in a 6-8 wrap nail knot leaving tag ends a couple of inches long.Instant slip bobber stop.

Feed the mono through the plastic tube, slide the knot off onto the mono, pull the two tag ends as tight as needed and clip off the tag ends. A sliding, adjustable slip knot.Been doing that ever since I bought the first package of those little Lindy slip knots for some ungodly price back 40 or so years ago. Great for crappie fishing.Rg

Those plastic tubes have a thousand uses. I use one when I'm finishing rods in the lathe. If I get a little bubble in the epoxy, I can remove it by blowing some air through the tube onto the wraps. Works like a charm.Rg
