    The C&F zinger has been one of our favorite ways to hold nippers and forceps while we are fishing. The coils stretch independently and are very durable compared to most zingers.
    Also features a strong magnet to hold your tenkara fly while changing flies. It is a great complement to our kits and the strap packs.

    The forceps and nippers are good quality. But the little safety pin that holds the zinger onto your vest or shirt is totally worthless. It has bent and fallen off several times.

    Great little Zinger

    Small, simple, functional. Perfect for nippers and forceps, this is a great addition to a simple tenkara outfit.

    Perfect size

    This small size of this retractable zinger fits perfectly with the idea of simplifying your fishing gear. I like the "dual" attachment design to keep nippers and forceps in 1 place. I subtracted 1 star because the plastic coil seems a bit small for carrying a normal forceps without eventually stretching out (the forceps sold by Tenkara USA should be fine though). Also, one thing to keep in mind is that the small size limits how far you can stretch the coil. One feature I really like is the magnet in the middle that can temporarily hold your fly as you prepare your line.
