home made spike guards?

[James Atkinson]

anyone got any ideas i have tried corks and bits of hose, don't really work, they just fall off and get lost, any one got any ingenious ideas, or should i just bye some, if so are they any good?

Use some old hose pipe works okay just cut out an indent for the gaff and it should stay on fine

Hose pipe mate.

 

Just have to make a hole in them on one end to thread some string through to tie them round the shank.

hose pipe is the go Ewan! you can even tie a short bit of throw line between them so they stay together. don't listen to Danomatic.

TBH I've not used them for years does not seem to matter, the very lightest of touches with a flat file if blunt.
