I do this when using a blood knot or locked blood knot to swivels particularly when using torpedo &/or ball bearing swivels.

Tie them all together to make enough line possibly to spool another reel using a braid to braid knot. 

In some glasses, you can carefully drill very small holes at the end of the arms & tie some line or thin cord.

I have always used clips or swivels to attach lures/squid jags. I've not had any issues doing this. Quick & easy....

Don't forget to enter your tips..........Unknown if footy will still go ahead.

Interesting comments peatop. The problem in SA is that the tossers that run the fisheries here just do not listen to anyone. They have all these public consultations etc etc which mean absolutely nothing & all a waste of time whilst in the meantime the fish keep getting rapped. They cannot put together a sensible plan together at all. Its all just smoke & mirrors whilst they bumble around BS ideas. Unfortunately they have no idea in SA as is evident from the nightmare they are in now. Its just so frustrating that it is not funny anymore. There is just no confidence here at all in anything they propose.

The Minister has been living under a rock for the last 10 years. PIRSA had & has absolutely no idea. Pissing around with stupid rule changes has achieved nothing. Now they are worried about Snapper stocks...Bloody pathetic. This has been so obvious for many years & nothing done. Leave the Recs alone & ban the pros/commercials.....simple as that.

The POWERS to be will dictate ,the whole thing ,WITH NO IDEA AT ALL , it is so sad that us rec .. fishos .. have so much passion ,in a sport that we love ,and spend lots of money and time ,trying to keep our habit alive ,only to be F@%$ed by government ,pirsa or what ever , WAKE THE F$#K UP , realize what is happening ,and realize something should have been done 10 years ago ,but no ,you are a bunch of low life scum in my mind ,have no idea about fishing ,just $$$$$$$$$$$$$, GET A GRIP AND LET US REC FISHOS HAVE A CHANCE ,absolutely  disgraceful ,...…..HOPE YOU CHOKE ON A BONE FROM IMPORTED FISH , oh sorry that would be from here MAYBE ????  A BIG JOKE END .

Fair enough. I do not have the time nor inclination to breed myself. I did all this in my younger years. As a back up, I have used & still use on occasions the Berkley Gulp "Maggots Asticots" in natural white. They are a very good substitute & last for many casts/catches!!!. You can dip them in any substance you like. I just dip in pilchard juice. Just another option.............

Long Life Gents
Each packet contains approximately 350 maggots per pack. Please note that this figure is dependant on maggot size and is only an approximate figure.
The average shelf life of long life maggots is up to three months. We have had reports of these lasting for much monger periods when looked after correctly. To ensure you get the best possible life, please keep maggots refrigerated between 3 and 5 degrees. The medium the maggots are packed with must be kept moist, but not too wet. If this is allowed to dry the maggots will begin to pupa.
So at $6 or so a tub, not worth breeding your own IMO.

Hi Doobie, sorry I'm a bit late for the party. I buy the long life gents too, and have found them to be fantastic. I keep them in the fridge set at 4 degrees, and they have lasted for several months. When fishing I'll often leave them out of the esky yet have had no issues with the ones bought from a local tackle shop. The only time I have had them go bad was from a BCF store purchase, and I suspect the product was old as the substrate was dryish. Recently I've started "flavouring" maggots with tuna oil and other stuff, I use a separate container so as not to contaminate all of them. The one's I purchase are Sheldon's brand, won't even bother trying any others. Recently my son and I caught 68 tommies in a 90 minute session, using 3 maggots to a hook and catching up to 5 fish between rebaiting.
 

Have used Sportfishing Scene at Cavan. Great service with quick turnaround. Regards, HBt.

We take ours to Rob for serious servicing. You don't have to go through a tackle store. 

I just go to my go to tackle store to split bulk spools & they do it for me.................
