Title: Quick, Easy, Cheap Lure Knocker
Post by: inNOTof on October 30, 2019, 12:53:14 PM
1. Go to Walmart
2. Buy large paper clips and 1oz egg sinkers
3. Straighten out the outside post of the paper clip
4. Slide that outside post thru the egg sinker hole
5. Bend up the post like a U shape and slide both posts back up into the bottom of the egg sinker.
6. Now, if done correctly you will have the "bulk" of the paper clip on top where you can slide your line thru the paper clip to be dropped down to knock your lure free.

IMPORTANT: Get directly on top of where lure is stuck and let slide down your line.

Nice,
Funny you should bring this up today. A buddy brought me one of his home made knockers this morning.
