casting button for me  .Big smile  I just stick them on the rod with insulation tape ......at the mo , but I might whip them on when Im a bit surer about  them 


 the brown one was a $10 rod from Habitat and was already damaged in that area so I shoved the button under the hand grip . The problem is that they sorta have to go in the right place to work  easily  and that means a bit of  surgery . 
I wish I was young again .... Id be heaps smarter than this time

Thanks for that, not a bad idea. But it’s for casting $100 stick baits on a top water rod, so not keen on experimenting as very expensive if a lure snapped off.

100 bucks for a lure 😬. Watching one of them flying over the horizon without the line attached would be " character building " for sure , but I dont think it would be any more likely to happen than using a glove ....or even a band aid on your casting finger............😯😳🤔😠😂🤨............100 bucks .....#uck that , I mean .........nah........really ? I spose , at least you'd know what your nightmares are going be about.
