Lure retrievers
With the crankbait topic in full swing, I figured I would start a thread on lure retrievers.
Anybody use them? This is the first season I have used one and it has paid for itself many times over. I grabbed it on Amazon, but I'm sure Cabelas has them to. Highly recommend it if you lose lures occasionally. Basically a heavy weight you send down the line and it knocks your lure free, I was sceptical, but first time out $9 rippin rap saved Sent from my SM-G960W using Tapatalk |
Does it untangle line self knotted 2 feet above the water in reeds?
LOL - I know it can't, that's an unreasonable expectation. I did hang a Johnson Silver Minnow that way last weekend though. |
I bought a home made one at a garage sale, It looks similar to the Cabelas Snag master and it works.

Use to fish tobin a lot. For snags in wood , used an old 2" hitch ball , a large snap swivel and para cord . Snap on main line , drop ball down on a tight line , bounce a couple times and $15 saved.

I've got the Cabela's snagmaster. Use it a couple times a year. I've had it for over a decade. Paid for itself many times over.
Simple to use. Very effective. |
I had no idea these existed. Another item on my list to get. Definately lost a few good lures. Cheers

Interesting... I’ll check into these thanks,chain

Seems to me they would work better out of a boat being directly over top of snag.
Do they work shore fishing? Anyone? |
I made my own out of a 2L pop bottle. Drill a 1/4 hole in the lid and put a 1/4” threaded eyebolt through. Affix with appropriate nuts and washers. Fill it up with water and hook it onto your line with a small snap carabiner. Reel it in with your hook, dump it out and throw it back into storage until you need it again.
