Things seem to be slowing down a bit on the board, so it must be time to go fishing. These are some small ones (4.5") I spun to use up the last of my cedar. I need to find some smaller hooks to finish them off, or find a way to use split rings so I can use some lighter hooks I have on hand. How do you guys open those split rings? I bought a split ring pliers, but still can't figure out how to use it.
