[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you brother , I wish I would have figured this out years ago lol , I would have saved me a buncha money

[@terrybeeson1614]

Hey Keith - LOVE your videos! On using snaps instead of hook and loop (Velcro).... As a leather worker, I use those snaps a lot. Soooooo, if you take a thin piece of leather of some kind and put it behind the kozi material, it will keep the snap from poking through when you clamp it down. Try it! I think you'll find it's AWESOME!!! Tight lines and screamin' reels!!!! (Oh... And I tie flies too, so I'll be trying to find some tips to help with those type of hacks as well...)

[@garyholtfreter777]

I have approx 40 polel with reels. That is a great idea. Thank you for sharing.

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you for watching brother

[@barrycordell2319]

Awesome idea! Now I know what to do with all these koozies I have!

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you brother , and thank you for watching

[@emarroquin77]

Never thought about using koozy for a reel cover. Awesome idea/DIY. Saltwater reels are pricey and every new boat rash I get my heart sinks a little

[@FishinNStuff]

They work pretty good . And your right , abby good reel cost a lot

[@bobcath5067]

Reel nice I like it keep up the good videos

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Sir I appreciate it

[@fourwinnsdummy]

Thanks for the idea! I had some extra canvas material laying around and I ended up making a cover for one of my spinning reels out of it. I still like your idea better with the koozies, that's genius. I think I'm going to make some kind of hybrid with canvas and koozies for my other three spinning rods. If I would've found this channel sooner I probably wouldn't have bought covers for my bait casters. Also thanks for making videos like this in general. You have a lot of cool ideas and I like DIY projects.

[@crazylewiemike]

Great Idea Great Video

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Mike

[@johnnymissfire8464]

Those turned out great! Im gonna go right out to the garage and cut that slit in my store bought covers for the line!!!

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you brother , they are great for 60 cent lol

[@sailingddcircumnavigation5931]

You come up with really good stuff.

[@glennscatfishing]

I was just sitting on the boat yesterday looking at how bad my reels were chipped up, I definitely need some of these.

[@FishinNStuff]

I'm an old carp fisherman from the 80s/90s and that's one thing I learned to put covers on your reels, they keep getting more expensive

[@willip4890]

Thats awesome love your ideas 💡 👏 😀 👌

[@SluSharkND]

But Honey, of COURSE I had to buy some new reels. You did such a great job on the reel covers I didn't want any of them to go to waste! Pure genius, sir.

[@FishinNStuff]

Hahaha stop baitin me bro haha . Cause I might actually try that and end up in the dog house lol

[@FishinNStuff]

Thank you Randy I really appreciate that brother

[@sfcmmacro]

Great DIY. I will be doing a bunch of these up for my rigs. I’ll probably look for two different colors so I can visually tell what pound line I have on a particular rig. Three additional ideas for the DIY: 1. Little dab of plasti-dip on the back of the snaps and you will not scratch up the reel. 2. If you use Barge contact cement you can glue up the ends instead of sewing it (or glue and sew), and use the cement to attach the Velcro. 3. Don’t forget to tag stitch the end you cut the excess off of so the seam does not unravel (or contact cement it).

[@FishinNStuff]

I did tag stitch and forgot too film it . And believe it or not I started to try glue lol . Your right about the button but I would prefer the velcro. Theres less chance of tearing out the neoprene

[@jawjerker9470]

Another great video brother, I got to say you have some mad sewing skills 😁😁😜😜

[@FishinNStuff]

Yeah right hahaha I sew like a monkey lol

[@FishinNStuff]

They are awesome , and cheap lol

LMAO I told the wife to watch the video (before I even finished watching it) and get ready to make these for me! I have SOOOOO many Koozies! Thanks Keith! Happy Fishing!

Lol your wife sees too huh haha . Happy fishing brother

[@CatfishandCrappie]

@@FishinNStuff She sews like her mother beat it into her ;) Now if I can get her to cook :(

[@joebuck66]

Awesome idea. I only have spinners but, if I ever do grow up and get a bait caster I can save money on a cover. Great video my friend.

[@FishinNStuff]

I love spinning reel brother , you are growed up lol . Actually spinning reels are superior to baitcasters . As far as drag and casting gos . But I just love the way a nice baitcaster feels . I have a lot of reels I never show on videos . I would think my spinning reel too baitcasters ste 50/50 . I love em both

[@KBAnglers]

SUMBODY took a Home-Ec course and it shows!!!😂😂😂😂😂 Reallly loved the fact you added that your wife sewed those on for ya to cover up that ya like to play dress up ever so often when you're feeling pret-tay!!!😂😂😂😂😂 Seriously, though, that was an awesome idea and one I might just do soon!!!!😎

[@Steve31957]

Great idea. Also, I recently made the Rod Holder out of the PVC piping shown on you channel, works very good. A lot better than a rod holder unit I purchased.

[@FishinNStuff]

Them reel covers will look good in that new Rodhokder lol . Thank you brother I appreciate you watching Sir

[@Vincentdonnelly5158]

Your a bloody genius a genius I say. One or two more of your videos and I will have saved enough to retire to a lifestyle of fishing.😉

[@troymyers5093]

To prevent the snaps from tearing the material you can cut some disks out of a milk jug and use them as washers. Being hdpe it won't scratch up the reel then.

[@FishinNStuff]

That's an excellent idea brother thank you

[@elwood121896]

I’m always scared to scratch my nice reels all up so glad you posted this I found some really cool tattered American flag kuzzies and made some they are awesome and way cheaper than $20 a piece for abu ones

I work on lawnmowers and have done plumbing, and when I got a vise much like the one you are giving away, I wanted a rotary vice but I couldn't afford one. I realized I could probably make a copy of a production model. It has lawnmower axle bearings and the plumbing pipe with regular nuts and bolts hardware. I have plans to try your zonker jigs, too. I wasn't sure about whether I'd like zonker skins for a lure until I saw your demonstration of the feather, buck tail hair, and zonker in the tank. It looks seriously more active in the water.
