John "Toast" Oast of Fishyaker.com demonstrates how easy and cheap it is to make your own paddle leash for your kayak. All you need is a thin piece of line, a clip and some velcro tape. Make sure you don't lose your paddle on open water!

Great Idea!! Thanks!

Great idea John.
Just knocked up two of these.
Many thanks for the video.
-
That seems pretty obvious

This is a neat demo, but I was mystified for the longest time because my velcro wouldn't do what yours does. FINALLY I learned there's two kinds of velcro. You might say in your sidebar, "Be sure to use STICKY BACK velcro." Otherwise it's a great little video.

thanks. maybe 3M tape play best

John - Just finished this. I used a coiled phone cord too, but found that it was a bit slick and cable ties didn't hold well. Remedy was to use a piece of duct tape first under the cable ties. Definitely holds tight now. Thanks many. Keep those great ideas coming.

I wonder if the double adhesive tape can stand wet condition ?!

I have been using them in salt water conditions for years, and they have never come loose. It probably depends on the quality of the veklcro tape.

Simple and awesome ideas. I just bought a Kayak and now I can save money and build my own leashes. Thanks John!

John - This is not only a good design for a paddle leash, this would also be a good design for a spinning rod leash. Nicely done - clear, concise. Thank you!

You can use the same technique with the phone cord too. For a rod leash, the coiled phone cord will keep it out of the way when not in use. Thanks Don!
