What We Say:
Loon Outdoors UV Knot Sense is a must have product when you head out to the river. Besides using it on just about every large knot I tie, here is a list of things I've used it for:
-
I've fixed pin hole leaks in my waders.
-
Re-attached a felt sole to the bottom of my buddies Patagonia wading boot.
-
I've snipped off the heads of foam hoppers and attached them to midge hooks to "match the hatch" of pellets being flushed out of the fish hatchery on the Davidson River, North Carolina...all streamside.
-
I've closed up cuts on my hands.
-
Closed up cuts on my dog's paw.
-
Fixed pin hole leaks on a belly boat.
The possibilities are endless, because this stuff is simply amazing. What comes out as a sticky goo, instantly sets up when exposed to UV light or direct sun. It's small enough to have in your fishing pack, fly tying kit, 1st Aid Kit or even your glove box.
Last Minute Thoughts:
If you read this review and don't pick up a tube of this stuff, I know for a fact that someday soon you will be kicking yourself in the pants for not having done so. That's how this world works!
