    Here's a link to a youtube video of the speehook at work. I never even heard of these things before, but they seem pretty cool. Also, looks like you could set them and leave them in a survival situation.

    I wanted to know if a Speedhook would fit in an Altoids tin-based PSK. I emailed the owner, Andrew, at www.Speedhooks.com, and he sent me one to try. My little experiment shows it will indeed fit, with the instructions. I cut the plastic bag it comes in down to about 2.75 inches by 7 inches and taped the cut sides closed. I trimmed the instruction sheet as small as possible and folded it to fit in the bag. I folded the Speedhook closed as if setting it to fish with and it fit easily into the plastic bag. There is a slight lip along the top edge of the bottom of the Altoids tin. The Speedhook sort of snaps over the lip into place and fits nicely in the bottom of the tin. Unfortunately I do not have a working camera so I cannot post pictures. I have ordered a military Speedhook and will see how that works next. I’ll post how it works.

    The military speedhook is the same as the standard speedhook. The difference is the military speedhook includes a tension tool, artificial bait, a plastic bag that can be used as a bobber a handline and a set of instructions on how to use the speedhook for fishing and snaring. The basic speedhook is the same in both cases.

    Must be having problems with the link I tried to find it and get a broken link error message.
    If by what I have learned over the years, allow me to help one person to start to prepare. If all the mistakes I have made, let me give one person the wisdom that allows them to save their life or the life of a loved one in an emergency. Then I will truly know that all the work I have done will have been worth every minute.

    I've used them for fishing (mostly ice fishing) and as trip snares. They work great as trip snares, especially for birds. The fact that you can adjust the release tension is a great aspect to this product. And they are reasonably priced. The civilian kit has 2 speed hooks, where as the military version has 1 speed hook, artificial bait and line. Just the civilian version and some "Gulp" or "Power Bait" and use your own line.
    I know what hunts you.

    The civilian version comes in 1, 2, 3 or 6 speedhook packages. The military is one speedhook only.
