Lip Grip repair - catchinon - 07-03-2018

I recently bought a Berkley Lip Grip. It works great but the first time I used it the dohicky on the end of the tether came off. Does anyone have an idea of how I can replace that so I don't lose the slider off the end?

Can you tie a knot in the end of the straps? J

[#0000FF]If the cord is nylon you can heat weld it by holding it over a lighter flame or a burner on your stove.[/#0000FF]

Thanks. The minute I posted I thought of that. Haven't had time to try it yet. I also thought I might do something with tie wire.

Thanks for reminding me, Pat. I'm not sure if it's nylon but there's a good chance it is.The tab was a flimsy item and I lost it in the rocks anyway. But epoxy alone might work just fine.
