Our friend ChuckE came up with this same design a year ago or so... good idea though.

I'll have to slap Drew around for stealing the idea!

That is cool.  I had given up on using Sabiki because of the snags although I still carry one with me in case I find myself in a big bait ball, I just don't use it.  It was just too much trouble snagging my wet suit, game bag, and everthing else.  Being a tinkerer, I like the idea and may have to give it a try.  Stolen idea or not, I am going to run with it now. 

Randy made a PVC sabiki rod for me a couple of years ago.  It was so heavy I was reluctant to use it.  So, for my birthday he gave me a commercially built one.  It is light and pleasant to use.

I think that plastic navy page is a few years old and predates chuckE's work. could be wrong tho.

That specific page may be, but the site has been pretty recently updated.

I have a soft place in my heart for the Plastic Navy as they got me started in this obsession.

Yeah, but hey, I know a guy that caught a 30# WSB on his sabiki so you never know!
