We made one that clips onto our boathook...
In Response To: Jon - can you provide details of your hook knife & pole? ()
when we first got our boat we were snagging potwarp all the time. Experience has taught us how to avoid the potwarp better. I bought some serrated knive blanks and machined a piece of lexan to fit over the end of one of those Starbrite poles that takes the multiple fittings.....of course we have hardly used it the last few years but it is nice to know it is in the locker.
