When I slip-bobber, I like this style of stop too, but have always just
picked 'em up at Wally World, think they are Thill, but don't remember how
much they were, not a lot. Have ya'll ever done this, bought a pack of
tackle of some sort, or bulbs for the boat trailer, tossed 'em in a cubbyhole,
and forgot it - and then bought 'em again? My wife did this with Tuna fish
one time, kept buying two or three cans every time it was on sale - I got
to looking for a bottle of hot sauce one day, and got to counting - think
we had about 33 cans of Tuna! Oh well, it will keep, guess we were ready
for a food shortage if it happened. Sorry for getting off topic-

I love these Du Bro stops but don't pre tie them. I tie them right on the line as I need them. It seems that the tie always comes loose or comes off after awhile and instead of removing the hook and everything I just re-tie the knot on the line again. I don't pre tie because I use different amounts of wraps for the different line sizes that I use. I only use 3-4 wraps on 4 lb line and 6 wraps on 6 lb line and 8 wraps on line larger than 6 lb. I give it a 10 out of 10. Just my opinion.
