To get your pole fishing elastics to into your pole nice and smooth every single time you need to use an elastic lubricant, and although they are readily available, the most cost effective way is to make your own!
So to make your own pole elastic lubricant, you will need some hair conditioner, but make sure it is fragrance free. Then I will mix seven parts water to one part hair conditioner before giving it a good shake to mix it together. I will then give all my top kits a quick squirt of this every time I go fishing and you will find that your pole elastic goes back as it should everytime. An item I wouldn’t do without!
