Where do I find line crimps and tool?
« on: Dec 21, 2010, 09:42 PM »
I would like to make my own leaders and quick strike rigs using Flouro Leader Material.  I would like to crimp them instead of tying them up.  Where is a good place to get these crimps and tools to Crimp?

Saltwater sportsman's catalogues have them, but I don't know how small they make 'em.

You may not be able to find anything that will crimp less that #60 lb leader material.

I usually make my leaders at home, on my workbench.   I have them stored and ready to go when out on the ice.
It saves me time and aggravation of trying to tie when my fingers are cold.


Hope this helps,

Wiener
