Nice ties, that should catch some fishes. When I start feeling antsy and can't go fishing I take a long walk outside and clear my head. And it's good for you.

I use a small knife blade to install my split rings on baits. It opens the split ring enough to slide a blade or anything onto it. Takes just a few seconds.
