Little Nipper
PRE 60’S HIGH TECH TOOL - LITTLE NIPPER
This very effective little tool is rare on the waters now, but is a handy gadget to have on your vest, in your sling pack, or ready to take over in an emergency when you accidentally drop your expensive nipper in the drink.
With it you can:
1. Nip leaders and tippet knot tags as short as you want them
2. Mash the barbs of smaller hooks. #1 and smaller.
3. Touch up a hook point.
4. Look retro-cool with it fastened to your vest or lanyard or hip pack. Connect it on the inside of your vest if it catches on your fly line.
5. Or, God forbid, your tear, split or need to repair your nails while fishing, there it is ready to do its job.
I can't tell you how many times I've lost, misplaced or left behind my expensive nippers only to rely on these "little nippers". If you have to use in salt waters, be sure to rinse it and let it soak in fresh water overnight.
Price: 2 for 2 Bucks ($2.00) (Cheap - remember Mad magazine?)
$8.50 for 2 Little Nippers and a Stainless Steel Cord Zinger
