The MG HOOK BOTTLE pocket bin for fishing by SMITH is a discreet and highly practical accessory for anglers who care about the environment. Designed as a pocket bin and ashtray, it easily stores small fishing waste (used bait, cut lines, packaging) as well as cigarette butts, without ever dirtying your fishing spot or the banks. Its compact design slips easily into a pocket or bag to accompany you on all your sessions, in freshwater or at sea.
Thanks to its magnetic base, this pocket bin can be attached to many metal surfaces around you: seat frames, metal crates, boat railings, rod supports, etc. This keeps your waste within reach in a closed container, preventing it from blowing away or falling into the water. It's a simple step toward cleaner, more responsible fishing.
Versatile, this accessory suits beginner and experienced anglers alike. It integrates perfectly into an existing gear setup without taking space or adding noticeable weight. Its practical opening allows you to deposit waste quickly with one hand, even while actively fishing, while limiting odors and keeping your equipment clean.
The main advantage of this pocket ashtray and bin for fishing is that it helps you keep your environment clean effortlessly. Instead of leaving line scraps, soft lure pieces, or cigarette butts on the ground, you store them immediately in a dedicated container. You thus contribute to the protection of aquatic environments and present anglers in a positive light to the public.
Its magnetic base is a real plus in the field. By attaching the MG HOOK BOTTLE to a metal surface, you free your pockets while keeping your bin within reach. This reduces unnecessary movements, saves time, and lowers the risk of spilling contents. The magnetic attachment is particularly useful on a boat or vessel where space is limited.
Another strong point is its compact and lightweight design that does not clutter your bag or vest. You can take it everywhere, even on short trips after work. Its capacity is sufficient to collect waste from a typical fishing session without needing constant emptying. At the end of the day, simply transfer the contents to an appropriate trash bin.
Finally, the MG HOOK BOTTLE fits into a modern approach to eco-friendly fishing. Increasingly, venues impose strict cleanliness rules; carrying a pocket bin dedicated to waste and cigarette butts becomes a real asset to comply with those rules and preserve your favorite spots.
Before starting your session, place the SMITH pocket bin in an easily accessible spot: vest pocket, belt, fishing bag, or attached to metal supports thanks to the magnetic base. Make a habit of depositing all small waste there: cut lines, plastic scraps, bait caps, cigarette butts, filters, or cooled ashes.
For optimal use as a pocket ashtray for anglers, ensure cigarette butts and ashes are fully extinguished before closing the container, especially in dry conditions or high heat. Always empty the MG HOOK BOTTLE into a proper trash bin at the end of your outing, away from the water, to avoid wind or rain dispersing the waste.
After a few uses, clean the interior with warm water and mild soap to limit odors. Let it dry completely before storing with your other fishing gear. Include this step in your routine of cleaning rods, reels, and lure boxes to keep equipment tidy and ready to use.
Finally, encourage your fishing partners to use this type of accessory. Leading by example with impeccable waste management at the water's edge helps preserve your fishing locations and ensures access for years to come.

Answer: The magnetic base provides reliable attachment to most appropriate metal surfaces. Simply install it on a clean, stable area and check its position regularly, especially on a boat or when there are strong vibrations.
