    we have used the noodles for a few years now and never have had a problem on the line memory. But if it does take shape of the noodle or even if it starts twisting from to much use - rub the line across the bottom of your rubber sole shoe or tennis shoe and it will take the memory out!

    Hope to be in this weekend, usually in by April 1 but had engine problems! LETS GO FISHIN'

    Gloomis, you're right! I tried the old line roll and it holds the 6 ft leaders like a dream, no tangles and I can just roll em right off. I bought a noodle for my harnesses though and things are getting much easier to rig.

    Thanks everyone for the replies!

    slit one end of the noodle and hook a 1oz jig into the end. keeps your noodles from blowing out of the boat. also learned from a friend that if you run really long leaders, use threaded rod thru the center of the noodle leaving one end of the threaded rod sticking out ( nuts/washers at both ends). use a cordless drill on that long end and you can wind up 25 to 100 ft REAL quick. works great!

    of course i only run tru trips and spoons so all my leaders have on them is a snap on one end and a snap swivel on the other...i can see how the noodle works best for those of you pulling harnesses...lots of good ideas out there just like hearing everyones suggestions. Happy fishing to all

    I agree, the noodle is a cheap/easy fix to your problem. Works like a dream for harnesses!

    My favorite for snells is the Tackle Buddy. I've been using them for 10 or so years. I tried to post a pic but apparently I'm not computer savy enough to figure it out.
