Description:
Turn a standard throw bag into a rope-snagging tool. The Wild Water Snag Plate (NRS item 45306.02) installs in the bottom of a throw bag so swiftwater rescue teams can snag and pull in another rope in the water when every second counts. Once installed it stays ready and does not interfere with normal throw bag use. Shop more rescue throw bags.
