Upon the hook can be put a min-now, worm, or other lure, and in this shape would,doubtl;ss, be very attractive for striped bass or weak-fish. The second article is a rod carrier, adapted forall sizes of rods, which slip into the leather ends of thecarrier, thus being protected from harm at the tipends.
