I was fishing down at the local river, using some bread as bait, and the bread was a bit too stale, so it wasn't staying on the hook very well. I pulled out an Ultra Shield, put my bait inside, and put the Shield onto my hook. But because I was using a small hook and a regular-sized Ultra Shield, the point of the hook was being covered. So, to try something new, I placed the Ultra Shield onto my line, below the sinker, and above the hook. And within 5 minutes, I had caught a Carp like I'd never seen before! The Ultra Shield is truly versatile and useful for moments like these.
