Crimping wire...

[tiggere]

Hey guys anyone use crimps on single strand? I have not seen any double barrel sleeves small enough for #5 wire...do they even make them? Yes I know...haywire twist...but damn it hurts my fingers after about 4 rigs...and I can't get the twist tools to work for shit...


I asked this on the West Coast forums but they have only seen pictures of Kings...so Ithought I would get some East Coast opinions...what do your standard king rigs consist of...

I also tied a king rig with 60# fluoro...think it will hold?

Looks good and hope it works!! I've only used wire, so don't know. Do know how much it SUX when I try to work around or am being lazy by not putting wire on only to see a beast cut at the boat and swim off with my dinner and my lure.

Well I think I will run it in the prop wash short right down the middle...should lessen the chance of a cutoff...that should give me an idea whether or not it would be able to last on one of the longer drops...

If wire is required...how do people catch wahoo, dolphin, and kings while trolling for tunas...most of those are rigged with 80# fluoro and up...wonder if 150# would be the way to go...
