Introduction: The Parasite Weights and Clips are changing how we fish for Bass as we speak. The Parasite Clip and or Weight , once in place holds the plastic lure in place so it will not move off your hook. The Parasite Clips and Weights will save
Anglers money by saving them lures that normally would have been lost. It also
allows Anglers more time to fish. No more stopping to fix your lure. This product is for everyone that fishes . From Tourney Anglers to the Novice Angler , they all can take to the advantages the Parasite Clips and Weights provide . You wont be sorry that you have either .

The Product : Comes in 4 different classes
the Parasite Clip - is used for a weightless presentation and they come 10 to a pack
the Lead Weight - comes in the following weights : 1/2, 1/4 , 1/8 , 1 , 3/16 , 3/4 and 3/8 ..... weights are in ounces

Whats great about the Tungsten weights is there not harmful to the enviroment .
As more and more States apply laws governing lead use age for fishing products
Tungsten is rapidly becoming more and more used .

First Impressions : I was introduced to this Product in the Summer of 2006 by Doug Cavin . When i first used this product I was impressed from the Get Go.
I thought WoW !!! What an awesome idea. Not only could I cover more water
since I didn't have to stop and refix my bait . But my bait lasted longer. And I caught more fish...... I'm Sold ....... My tacklebox wont be without these again .

Equipment used during the test :

Rod : Rhino Indestructible - model RNS662MW-VMA5
Reel : CS 1000 Challenger
Line : Stren Dura Tuf 10 lb Test

Construction : The Construction of each Product is superb . The Clips are a single piece of Wire . The Weights from my take have been poured over the wire and the seal between the two is complete . I could be wrong but thats how I think they were made ..... Is this a problem , heck no ....... During each Hookup I got the product did not in any way hinder the Hookup .

Durability : I have yet to break one or lose one .... I fish heavily structured ponds
with Rocks , Trees , Stumps .... you name it ..... its in there ...... Rating : 5

Design : This product is what it is ..... Designed to help catch fish .... and thats exactly what it does ...... Its a time saver and money saver . Anyone that uses this product will reap from its advantages. Rating : 5

On the Water : The Parasite Clips and Weights are Multi - Functional and serve many purposes ....they are made for Plastics specifically .... I was using a 2/0 hook but I think you can use any size of hook from a Octopus to a EWG .... Rating : 5

Presentations : You can do just about anything with this product . You can fish it weightless by using the Clips . Or if you want to use the Weights you can punch it through a weedbed . Its very useful in all applications .
Rating : 5


Overall Rating : 5 ...... a must buy !!!
