The MonoMASTER
Monofilament has a life of about 600 years. So consider all of those tippet and leader changes you make, and where the line winds up. You can be vigilant about not tossing mono into streamside bushes, but it eventually has to go somewhere. That somewhere is the MonoMASTER by Grasshopper Outdoor Products, a small, lightweight receptacle that you can hitch to your fishing vest. Simply stuff the used mono into the spool and turn the handle to trap the mono in the MonoMASTER’s teeth. When you have a full spool, simply discard the mono safely or, better yet, recycle it. For it’s contribution to helping the angler manage waste monofilament and protecting the environment the monoMASTER has received official endorsements from the Federation of Fly Fishers and a celebrity endorsement from Richard Fridenberg, screenwriter of the classic movie A River Runs Through It. The monoMASTER is available from all major fishing tackle retailers at an accessible price of just $11.95. www.grasshopperproducts.com
