diermit 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2005 For a portable streamside vise I use an Xacto knife handle and a rubber band. I wrap the rubber band a few times around my left ringfinger (I'm right-handed). Then I load my hook into the jaws of the Xacto handle and slide it between the rubber band and my finger on the palm side. Instant vise! The rubber band holds it like a third hand and keeps it from falling into the water if you're still on it. The pic should explain it better than I can. Hope this helps!
