    Just put some readers on. But I see no problem with the ear protection deal. Skin cancer is BAD.

    I stopped my the booth at the Classic. Honestly, if I was older and couldn’t hold steady or see the guides, I buy one in a heart beat.

    line ties on similar to a clip on drop shot weight. I used it at the classic expo, and I'm at the point of needing (but not wanting) reading glasses to see stuff close up.

    I had line threaded on a 7ft rod in about 5 seconds from picking up the device, clipping line on, and threading the eyes. If I were re-stringing 20 rods for a tournament regularly, I'd have one in my shop just for the time savings.

    the line threading thing might work for folks that have arthritis in their hands

    Show us what ridiculous tool you found!
    Looks like a solution in search of a problem.

    I use these... they were made fun of in another thread a while back, but if you have older eyes, use readers, have arthritis, etc - they are very useful. They have a microguide vesion as well.

    I have a few sets of these to use at home and on the water. Otherwise I need my readers. And it sucks to drop the line and have it go all the way to the reel to start over

    If I were a tournament guy who was constantly restringing multiple rods I guarantee I would have one. Why not cut the time down rigging tackle and spend it researching etc.
