Anyone used Parasite Clips, Weights, or Tungsten weights? If so, what was you experience?

Have you ever set the hook on a Texas rigged worm and lost your fish half way to the boat because the worm balled up on the end of the hook? Of course you have!

Have you ever gotten frustrated when trying to whiz a Senko a country mile, only to have it slide down the hook and spiral as you bring it back in to fix it? Of course you have!

Ever set the hook on one of those bulky frogs and it balled up on the hook? You know...

Not anymore with Parasite weights and clips! I've been using them now for a couple months and it is all that and a bag of chips! No more of th eaforementioned problems again!

EXACTLY! Parasite will save you time, frustration, and money in wasted plastics. They are in my opinion the best thing that has happened to fishing tackle in my fishing career

I bought some clips as well as the weights. I have only used the clips so far....but they are AWESOME.
I will definitely get more when these run out.

The portion of the clip at the top does not allow the plastic to move down. Now because it works to keep the bait from sliding down, it does not impede hook set because the hook is driving in opposite direction of the clip

I think that made sense? Anyway, it works.

I will be field testing the tungsten weights for the next few months.
