Yes I did use grommets. Added a "sleeve" in same material as the binding. Used 1x7 covered stainless steel line and purchased the hooks with the oval pieces in silver & gold at Walmart. The hooks went into the grommet holes, I measured the line and cut 14 inch pieces. Tied the line to the tops of the hooks then added the lures. Last Step was to have a standard length of line to the pole so it would hang evenly. Lots of measuring, but worth it to make a "one if a kind" art piece for my son. And yes, he is thrilled with it!
