This one is little easier for the most part.

All ocean/fishing related.

#3 is a chum bag

#12 is a lime juice for making ceviche

#1 is for twisting a wire leader,

#4 is to put on your line when you get stuck on a dock, it slides down the line and knocks your lure loose

# 6 and 9 are both used for threading a ballyhoo or similar dead bait for trolling (east coast style)

#22 are catfish pliers for skinning a catfish or any fish for that matter

You claim to have a "weakness for gadgets". I think you are a "gadget hoarder!"

Lobster gauge for dive light... Or maybe a tool used by an ob/gyn ?

I need to make up for a lot of lost fishing time during years 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and part of 2000, up to 2006. Fishing was great then, but I had more important priorities.
Getting educated, married and raising a daughter, who now is a chemistry professor at Harvey Mudd College.
As to Catalina, I can PM you when I go again. Probably in November.

Not right.

Correct. Works best on treble hooks.

# 6 and 9 are both used for threading a ballyhoo or similar dead bait for trolling (east coast style)
Guess for #6 is incorrect, but #9 is correct.

#22 are catfish pliers for skinning a catfish or any fish for that matter
Correct sir.

You have NO idea how right you are.

Maybe the toughest one to guess unless you are a diver. Correct.

Since we are going to Baja, here is a link to a thread about a trip to the same latitude as Cedros Island, on Pacific side.
http://www.pierfishing.com/msgboard/...highlight=2013

At the same website, you can search for many reports by me about my fishing outings. Particularly the Catalina Mole trips.

I have a four parts post about the fishing the Cedros Island, if anybody is interested.

Keep the guesses coming.

2 is fine thread for tying on delicate baits

5 are Carolina keepers

6 is a worm threader

7 are glowing/light up bobbers for night fishing

Three out of four is not bad.

Then maybe 6 is for dehooking bait fish caught on a sabiki without touching them

HobieScot · 08-29-2015, 04:58 PM

#6 looks like those old night crawler inflater that grampa used to puff up the worms with before having me stick em on the hook for trout at Silverwood Lake

Not correct sir. Sorry.

I hope to fish with my grandson some day too.

Rest of the answers coming soon.

Thanks for playing the game.

Here are the answers. Of course none is needed to go fishing, but it may be helpful to know they exist just in case one decides to use them.

1-Magnet to hold the rod secure while putting on, or taking off waders, etc. in preparation of going fishing, or going home.

2-Miracle thread for keeping soft bait on the hooks.

3-Chum bag

4-Lure retriever. The tool slides on the fishing line to the lure, the chains hook to the treble hooks,
and the heavy line is used to retrieve the lure instead of taking a risk of breaking the fishing line.

5-Caroliner keeper.

6-Line threading device for casting reels, especially when using braid.

7-Battery operated lighted units that can be used instead of the onetime chemical light stick.

The one on the left is for deep water. The middle one for surface.

8-Casting reel line holder. It prevents line to be pulled of the line winder slot. A simple loop at the end
of the line does the same thing.

9-Leader threading device for whole fish as bait. The top one is actually typewriter spring installation
Tool that I found to do the job. Others will do the same.

10-Flashlingt bug gauge. It allows seeing and measuring the lobsters underwater with one hand.

11-Helps holding the tailfin of the fish while scaling or gutting the fish.

12- Removes fish scales.

Hope you had fun guessing.
