Help to ID - dsnethen - 05-23-2006 Can someone tell me what this is and how it is used? I would like the actual name of the object if possible. Thanks.

I will be intrested to know if anyone knows what it is?[] [signature] Re: [Rockabilly714] Help to ID - dsnethen - 05-23-2006 Let me see if I can make the file size smaller and attach as well. [signature] Re: [Rockabilly714] Help to ID - dsnethen - 05-23-2006 I compressed the file, but you do need an application like Winzip to open. Winzip is free for trial if you go to cnet.com.

Third guess would be a teabag retreiver.

But without barb's I wasn't sure unless the spikes actually locked into place (unless it is to pull up a fish that doesn't fight back). I will live without knowing, but now it is driving me nuts. Thanks. [signature] Re: [dsnethen] Help to ID - DrownedDesertRat - 05-24-2006 No clue what it is but I'll email the pic to my fishin' buddy. Maybe he knows (since he thinks he knows everything). [signature] Re: [DrownedDesertRat] Help to ID - EZOP - 05-24-2006 I'll bet Cliff Claven from Cheers knows.
