Time for new leader material and swivels


Recommended Posts

Time to pick out some new leaders and swivels to use with my 10 leadcore rods.

 

Usually when people post things, they only just say use this and that but dont really post the exact make/model/part number.

 

Post what you use and please post part numbers or links if you can.  That will help me out and others who are looking for the correct gear.

 

 

For leader material (usually a 20ft leader on leadcore) I've been using Seaguar STS in 20 and 25lb

For swivels, I've been using Sampo CoastLocks, but Ive heard that its better to use something with a wider end for better movement of the spoon.  Any suggestions?

Good quality ball bearing swivel (e.g. Spro) (#2, 3) for most things and larger for terminal of wire dipseys. I use Duo Lock snaps in stead of coast locks on the ball bearing swivels for the very reason you mentioned - rounded wider angle for the lures for full action capability.  Sorry but I don't have the numbers handy but Cabela's has the stuff.
