From Captian Allan Starr of Galapagos Sportfishing, "Fishing in Jurassic Park"
Hey Randy, After extensive testing on approximately 150 big Stripped Marlin up to 300lbs, only one word describes your Thumb Dinger, AMAZING.
The only problem we had is, we destroyed all the ones we had, PLEASE send more!!
By using the Thumb Dinger to thumb-the-spool on HOT Stripped Marlin, is the "cats-ass". For Hook Setting, I've seen Nothing Better, as the Thumb Dinger works on "J" hooks just as well as on circles. You all have hit a Home Run wth this product, I highly recommend it to ANY offshore angler.
The basic thing is to have anglers who can fish, it is by no meens a cure-all but makes circle hook fishing for Stripped Marlin so much more efficient and eliminates fumbling with the drag lever as your thumb is much more sensitive to pressure than a drag-lever and therein lies the key to the Thumb Dinger, from strike, to dropback, then being able to increase pressure on the spool gradually, nothing come close to your Thumb Dingers for setting circle hooks on conventional tackle.
I'll foward some pics of all the action as soon as I can. Best of luck and again, you have a Great Product!
