Looks like a tool to store a sabiki when not rigged up on the pole. Then again it could be one of Mahigeer's sex toys!

It is called –Knot Assist 2.0

After losing a good fish during my recent ¾ day trip, I checked out to see what could be a better knot for tying braid to mono. The easily broken knot was either an Albright, or a double uni to uni. I had tied different knots for different rods, so I cannot tell which one it was.

Anyhow, a knot called “FG” seems to have the good rating. However it is a bit complicated knot requiring tension while tying the knot and maybe three hands. Holding with tooth will do too, but I rather not use my teeth. This tool makes it much easier, though it came from Japan and the cost including shipping was $50.00

Here are links to see the tool in action.
In Japanese with English subtitle.

In English. I don’t think it is as good.

Here is the same knot without any tool.

I would not use it for everyday fishing, but when you are after the biggies, I think it is a good idea.

Here is my second try in tying it. With practice I am sure I can do it better and faster.



Hope you liked the game.

Funnier than the comments is the fact that you actually bought that thing
