These Tough Claws have no pattern

The two halves of the clip are different diameters so anything over 1 inch will not work very well with small to medium sized hard grips. Doesn't work very well for a Terrova trolling motor shaft as it's about 1.5" in diameter.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Use as bow holder on kayak

Saw a guy on YouTube using this as a bow holder on his bow fishing kayak. I haven't tested it in the field myself, but the RAM workload is four pounds, that's what my FinFinder SandShark weighs. I will let you know how the practice/field testing goes and update the information.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Could have gone for a newer model

Good but too expensive

Quite large. This is good for me, but can be a disadvantage for others. The clip design has two different curves on each shoulder. Presumably this is done to allow for a wide range of tube sizes. However, this means that it does not fit every size perfectly. You have to really tighten the thing to make it hold up well enough. The pipe I'm clipping to is right in the middle of the area shown. I feel like it should keep up a bit better for something in the middle of its range. Most often it isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Damaged
