"On a separate rod or make do when needed?"
You can use a dedicated rod/handline or use the same fishing rod if you add a swivel or quick disconnect clip to the end of the (1 ft short)  line that snell to the hook.

Got it!  @nooblife...I've never chased RCG snd the recent FOMO has caused a new fishery to open up in my freezer...

I just snell a thin wire barbless hook on backwards on the line above a weight.

It's the simplest method!

Go Moo Go!  Nobody's takin' a sawzall to it and I hope the bad guys don't figure some of these things out.  Loved the vid.  I kinda like the hooks on the top but you're saying my discontinued version holds a wider yak?  Either way, see ya on da wattah'!

They’re pulling this off on the East coast as well with da commercial lobstah’ fisherman as well. 

On a side note, Target and Safeway just got noticed for overcharging consumers on staple stuff.  All consumer pricing for our home economies will steadily rise.   

Growing stuff or harvesting proteins for our own personal use by our own efforts will eventually be on the chopping block but hopefully not in my lifetime.  Our kids will figure it out but it might get ugly.  Progress is regress in my opinion.

Hope to meetcha on da wattah some day da gophah’ brah!

I cracked my 2.0 readers in my pfd yesterday.  When I gotta read a chart or some focused up close thang I pull em out and lay over my shades.  So far I'm at readers level.  I was a little nervous at my DMV license renewal though with the "put your hand over one eye" moment. 

Looks tasty to da max!  Ciabatta is my friend

Thanks Al!  I love it, especially the weight.  My hesitation is mandatorily adding up to 32oz of lead to my platform for an unverified life expectancy of said released species.   

I bought this reel for hand fishing, us it qualified?

Interesting handline.  I don’t see any battery compartment for it.  Must be legit…
