Super User buzzed bait Posted October 20, 2016 Super User Posted October 20, 2016 Has anyone used the cal coast fishing cali clips? If so what were your thoughts on them? Have a couple of rods that need hook hangers and was going to get the old stand by fuji keepers, but i saw these and though they were interesting. thanks in advance! Quote

Super User WRB Posted October 21, 2016 Super User Posted October 21, 2016 The Cali Clip has been around for several years now and work good for lighter drop shot weight to 3/8 oz., heavier weights tend to slide the clip on the rod blank. Also take a look Eye Surrender drop shot wrap with Velcro that wraps around the rod handle to hold drop shot weights. I use ES lure wraps for my treble hook lures, swimbaits and now drop shot and pleased with the product. Tom Quote

I see the over size hook keeper could double as a weight holder. Tom Quote

Who would do that unless they didn't like it? The over size hook holder is perfect for big swimbait rods, you can locate where you want it. Tom Quote

I have done it both ways with the ones I have. Quote
