What is it. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

What is it??

Those of you, who know me by now, know that I have a weakness for gadgets.

Here is my latest…..What is it for. The more specific the better.

Good luck.

Checking on line is sort of cheating, so give it your best shot at a guess.
It is more sporting that way.

Hmmmmmmmm looks like a pant hanger of sorts ?

And any Sap knows I didn't google with that dumb of a guess ;-)

MrPatrick · 08-27-2015, 02:45 PM

Holds dive boots open so that they can dry?

Hipster jewelry?

Mountaineering speculum?

summers in kuwait · 08-27-2015, 02:51 PM

a really sketchy bicycle caliper brake.

octico · 08-27-2015, 03:05 PM

Triple nipple clamps?

Dannowar · 08-27-2015, 03:20 PM

holding up supply lists?

Jim Sammons LJKF · 08-27-2015, 03:24 PM

Bimini twist knot tier

igotpron · 08-27-2015, 05:02 PM

I believe this is a handle to lift 3 yellow tail simultaneously for photos!

Iceman · 08-27-2015, 05:04 PM

That's last years model, did you find it in the clearance bin? Here is the latest model............It works killer!

tsugg · 08-27-2015, 05:08 PM

it attaches to the release jaws on the mirage drive so you can pull your drive up real quick with one pull from your easy chair while coming in through the surf??????????????????

With absolutely zero idea of what that thing is how would I Google it?
I don't think "what the hell is that" is going to work.

Looking forward to the answer.

Mahigeer · 08-27-2015, 04:01 PM

You guys are great with providing me with a good laugh.

I will post the answer tomorrow after some more guesses.

Donnowar is not going to let go with the "list" thing. I am sure it will be a running joke at Gonzaga, if he is coming.

one clue---it is fishing related.

octico · 08-27-2015, 04:03 PM

I think this guy watches too much " This old House".

What is it?

ful-rac · 08-27-2015, 04:05 PM

I think I saw that thing on Ancient Aliens...yeah it was an artifact found at Puma Punku in Bolivia.

Mr. NiceGuy · 08-27-2015, 04:20 PM

Maybe it could be used as a scale to determine who has the bigger fish for a jackpot?

Hunters Pa · 08-27-2015, 04:25 PM

You are all way off. That there helps prevent swamp-nuts. Clip one to each side and the lanyard attaches to a bungee that goes to your paddle. With every stroke you get air flow to keep the boys cool and dry.

See what you miss out on when all you do is peddle?

Maybe Hobie will come out with one that attaches to the Mirage drive, but I would hate to see the lawsut when something gets caught in the chain

The #20 Red Label Seaguar gave out at about 20 lbs. of pull. The other end knots were 10 wrap SD jam knot.

You can see the breakage at the left of the knot.

Very similar to where my knot broke at a boat trip. Costing me a yellowfin tuna and a 10.00 lure.

More tests to follow.
