Heavy Hauler or you can buy the clipped loops that are for Heavy Hauler lanyards.

Just curious though, do you really need that many calls hanging on your neck?

Don't freak out on me here, just asking a question.

Not really dont know whats out there, prefer somthing other then round like a square or snake braid or maybe theres somthing i havent even seen or know about. Even if i could get a 5 plus 1 for dog wistle drop lanyard that would do it just seem that each time i go out some one forgets a call and either i lend them mine or theres 1 less caller. The lanyards i find are so thin and tiny afriad 2 loose my good calls. Colour not as important 2 me. Any pics or idea would be a big help.

Goose noose lanyards. Very strong and comfortable. Comes on 4 double drop with whitsle clip (that's what i got and love it). If you want you can buy 2 clip on double loops.

Here's my Band Hawg. Only I am lacking in the band department so it's a bit bare yet. It's a little different than most lanyards I've seen, has a wider braided area for the back of the neck so it doesn't feel like its digging into your neck. Sorry for the crappy pics.

Those are some pretty nice lanyards you got there. I really like the round braid.

look online for instructions on how to braid or have somebody close by show you. The rest is just practicing and learning. I make my own lanyards too. I can do the flat braid and the square braid. I am not as good at the square braid as I don't use it as much. I have never tried the round braid though.

there are some sites that have how tos about how to braid paracord. The cobra braid is another name for the flat braid, you may get more results with that, plus the skinny round and the fat round, and the square, the square and "fat" round are pretty much the same except you cross the strings on opposite sides instead of going straight across for a round braid as opposed to the square braid. The Big flat part on my lanyard in the pics is a very wide square braid essentially with 8 strands, 6 weave and 2 warp, or whatever the technical braiding terms are I don't know. The transitions between the different braids and the joining together at the bottom and making it all look good and seamless just takes time and practice. I unbraided that lanyard 4 or 5 times before I ended up with that as a finished product, and that doesn't count the 6 hours of practice braiding I did looking for cool neat stuff that was functional and practical. I had come up with an extra super fat braid but it was just ungodly huge, it was about an inch in diameter and didn't really help with the neck digging in problem I was trying to solve so I gave up on it because it took a HUGE amount of cord and it was a giant pain in the ass to braid all that. Braiding lanyards is essentially like calling, a little research and practice, practice, practice.
