Worried about fish hooks... Anything else I should know about this?

We use the Sevylors for fishing only and take two dogs (large, with long nails), also. I am the wild fisherperson and constantly attach barbed hooks to the sides of the boat unintentionally. With gear all over the floor of the boat, as well, it has held up remarkably for the 20 or so years that we have had it. We take it through log bottoms, etc. with no problems. It's tough!

In addition to what Jason said, filters bubble and fish jump, even the little ones. So to keep from "decorating" the outside of your tank with watermarks and dead fish, put a lid on it:)

Unfortunately there isn't a place to keep you fish. If you are taking about live bait you are also out of luck. There are plenty of places to store artificial baits.

Mine definitely had holes for the hooks. If yours doesn't then something is amiss. I hope this helps!

When I had baby fry cichlids, i took a fish net removed the netting from it and tied it over the opening, you have to be really careful, but it worked hope this helps.

I looked all over the rod and couldn't find any. However we drag herring around with them all day. Have even ran HEAVY weights in the ocean with no problem. Hope it helps.

Yeah! I've gone fishing, caught some small fish with it!Just be careful if you catch anything big.. :)Also don't hook your kayak, that'd be bad..

Yes I just noticed the same thing, worms and some kind of webbing that I am fairly certain is from the worms. Have you found out if anything should be done about it?

Not really a fishy smell but you have to be right on top of it to smell it I have a keen sense of smell and don't recommend getting that close to it only put a few of these out of the time for they will take them and hidethem good luck!

I can't answer this question because I don't know if Amazon carries hooks . I think a crab trap hook would work great

I haven't but I would think it would poison the water if there were fish in the tank. Check with your pet shop to see what they suggest......

Sounds like you used too much safe start, only a 1/2 teaspoon per 2 gallons.. Dont rush it. For me, with a pump running, at least 7 days. Buy only 1 fish to test, watch the fish for a day. Add fish 1 or 2 at a time and see that they are healty..good luck

Did you ever get an answer to this? I'm similarly confused. What's the fish-looking thing?

In the few months that I've got it, the "hook" has never unhooked itself during use. Not even once. Hope this helps!

This stuff does not stretch, so hook set is no problem. I have had it on my reels for years and it just does not seem to wear out. In clear water I use fluorocarbon leaders. Some times it can be a slight problem because it is too strong to break off if snagged. I prefer the high vis yellow so I can still see it if there is a tangle. Have fun.

I would send it back and ask for a replacement. "Guessing" the right position could seriously harm your fish.

I have not experienced that problem...just had great success.I bait with very small amount of dry dog food and tiny piece of uncooked Bacon.maybe try fresh batteries and be sure unit never gets wet.good luck.
