CrazyFish Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 I use x-acto blade holders. I can generally find them on sale for a buck a piece, take the blade out and it holds my rattle traps and tops with no problem at all. YOu just have to clean it up every once in a while to get the clear coat out. And....my experience has been that the plastic handled blade holders, while cheaper, are not better. In fact, they don't work well at all. Spend another quarter and get the metal holders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherry Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 I bought my alligator clips at Home Depot. They work fine but I haven't tried them on a lure that heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
