Stick the line trough the No-Tie Lure Connector. Tie a overhand knot

Pull the knot tight. Cut of any access line, and pull the knot up into the No-Tie Lure Connector. The lure is now attached and ready for fishing.

The No-Tie Lure system is an improvement to every fishing lure known today.

The No-Tie Lure system is an improvement in all aspects to the lure that exist today.
