They were originally used to put thread on a needle for sewing. They adapted very well for fishing.

Can you make the picture bigger, I cant see it....

I thought it was some sort of trick question at first

I think pretty much anybody who has tied on an ice fly knows what it is at a glance.

I'm getting older and eyes aren't so sharp anymore. I'm liking my 2.5X cheaters, but one of these would be handy.

pro2860 · « **Reply #17 on:** Dec 31, 2009, 07:09 PM »

Could I go without my cheaters by using that or do I still need them to get that thru the eyelet?

JigAwhopper · « **Reply #18 on:** Dec 31, 2009, 08:51 PM »

my grandma used to use one like that, don't need one just yet
