On a cable leader, the Speed Stringer captures the strung fish. Between the float and the floatline, the leader is fastened. If a shark consumes fish that have been strung, the plastic-coated steel cable protects the stringer. It comes with a speed needle as standard. Once you have the fish in your hands, instead of swimming back to the float to place your catch there, you unclip the speed needle from your gun, thread it through the fish mouth and out through its gills, then clip the speed needle back on, and off you go to catch another.
