After losing two sounders in two days I decided to make my own.
Total cost about $.35 with a 1oz bank sinker, you could probably get it down to a quarter using only 1/2 oz weight which should be perfectly fine.
You could even go with the small clips in a pinch.
I like these medium sized clips because I can secure them anywhere on my jacket, open them with heavy gloves on, and because it holds the hook perfectly every time.
All the sounders I see and end up buying have small jaws that are a pain in the ass to open, especially with cold hands.
I have some colored binder somewhere, a nice red color would be better than black for visibility.
