New Tackle Project

[RDB]

I have multiple length rod socks and after a day of fishing, find it frustrating to figure out which sock goes with which rod.  I have had a planned project for some time to see if I could create customized sock labels and this afternoon finally had a few minutes to start.  This is my first attempt using a few of my rods.  Basically it is a special vinyl transfer paper used to put images on dark backgrounds.  I found the image or font I liked, printed on the paper, cut out what I didn’t want to show, and pressed on using a heavy duty t-shirt press.  (you can also use an iron).  I thought I would post a few pics in case others might feel motivated to try.  I found it to be a pretty simple process.

These are awesome!  I like the diawa steez and the chatter bound socks best!  

 

I bet you could sell these no problem...

Let’s see them on the rods now!
