    That cool doohickey is used to tie knots with monofilament fishing line.

    Close enough Kyle. Now it's time to quit pulling a Martin and post up an item.

    So what is it? Name? What does it do and how? You can't drag us out this long without some explanation! The graphic tells me little.

    Geez amigo, you use it to pull the knot tight so you don't get the hook stuck in your damn finger. You can't be that old. :)

    I'm not that hamfisted either. Shit, I could tie a fisherman's knot when I was 7 and I have never needed a special tool to do it. Doesn't everybody have a pair of needlenose pliers in his tackle box anyway?

    I suspect this dubious tool is sold by Ronco and hawked on TV by Billy Mays.

    How many did you buy?
