Quick take
A rod-mounted line cutter and hook keeper system that attaches with UV-stable bands to eliminate the need to reach for tackle-box tools during fishing.
This is a two-piece rod-mounted set: a small line cutter that sits above the reel and a STOW keeper that rides on the split grip. The cutter handles line, tag ends and knot trimming during tackle changes, while the keeper holds a hook and a drop-shot weight so they don't swing loose. Bands let you position both pieces where you want them, and the freshwater version has a gold titanium-nitride coated blade. It suits bass anglers who rig and re-rig often.
