Boilie needles

Boilie needle

— a small tool with a handle and a thin metal rod, usually with a small hook or latch at the tip. It works simply: the needle is pulled through the boilie or other bait, then the loop of "hair" is hooked with the end and pulled back through the hole; after that, a stopper is inserted into the loop, and the bait is securely held on the rig. The purpose of a boilie needle is to quickly and neatly attach boilies, pellets, or corn to a hair rig without crushing the bait or using makeshift tools. Example: change the boilie on the hook in a minute on the shore, preserving the shape of the bait and without damaging the rig.
