EXCLUSIVE! FEATHER-CRAFT “SHOCK GUM” SECTIONS are approximately 6” long with loops in each end. They are highly elastic, THEY STRETCH BUT WON’T BREAK. Loop-connect between fly line and leader. Adds a pound or more “test” to your tippet! Save your tippet on the hit, and when fighting and landing fish on light tippets. You don’t even know it's there when casting. Last for years. 2-PAK
I was gifted a book “Spring Creek” that kept mentioning shock gum attached to the guides leader. I looked it up and came across this product. Landed a nice rainbow on a specific barbless hook I’ve been tying with that I’ve had trouble landing fish on when using. The elasticity acts as a nice buffer to keep the line tight. The knots are kind of big and obnoxious, but did not impede casting distance or accuracy.
