This is what I normally do jimmy!
But having a sabiki rod that is solid that I can just hide away in my holder on my pa just seems to be a lot neater because I will make sometimes 2 or 3 times when I go out. it would be easier to do that then just having to hassel with free sabiki hooks

Where I end up making my own rod I will remember this for an Idea



Also for those who have a little problem with all the extra sabiki hooks hanging around like I do when I use a full sabiki rig try this.

Take your sabiki and cut it in half.
Use only 3 hooks and put a swivel on both halves can make it safer and a saver then having to deal with 5 hooks floppin around with only one greenie on there.
also you save another sabiki when a hook gets messed up.
I will put pics up of this idea eventually just don't have any sabiki's on me right now.
Hope yall get what I am talking about here!

Thanks again to echo1er for that idea of melting to down to round it!
