Locking Clevis from Dutch Fork Custom Lures

Locking Clevis from Dutch Fork Custom Lures

Ever have an Ah-Ha moment, and wonder why you hadn’t thought of something before?  Well, let me share one with you all.  I have been frustrated for a long time with the tangles I got on my bottom bounces.  I would constantly have to unwind my swivel from the wire.  Then I decided to switch to slider rigs.  With this rig the fish aren’t pulling against a fixed weight when they bite, and you can go to free spool to feed line.  Ok, I admit it, I am cheap.  I had all these bottom bouncers and I didn’t want to just give them away.  So, I cut the wire at the bend and attached my swivel.  Two problems:  one was that somehow the bottom bouncers would work loose, and two, I still had the tangles.  Solution:  I have a bunch of the Dutch Fork Custom Lures locking clevises that I use on my spinners for worm harnesses.  When I replaced the brass or plastic sliders with these clevises both my problems went away.  I haven’t lost a bottom bounce and I am not getting the tangles I used to. Now I don’t have to get rid of all those bottom bouncers I have collected.  You have heard me talk about the Dutch Fork Ghost spinners and Butterfly blades.  This is just another innovative product from these folks.  You can check out their web site to find these clevises and other great products.  Just log on to www.dutchforklures.com.
