Curly Storage
« on: March 06, 2011, 08:03:17 PM »
How do you guys store your curlies? While fishing I'll change set ups and switch to a backing sighter or an indicator if the situation is right and haven't really found a good way to store the slinky.

Depending on how you attach it to your leader, the best idea I can come up with is taking whatever you made the curly with and wrapping it back around that and putting a rubber band on either end of it.

That's roughly what I do.

If it's only for a short time, I just place it in a loose vest pocket.  For if it's for longer, I quickly wrap it around a chop stick and tie it down with a few twist ties.  It works for me.

Section of plastic soda straw and small orthodontic rubber bands.  Small ziplock bag.   Very light and compact.

 My daughter's expensive braces etc. finally paid off for me.
