Those look great! I'd buy a dozen from you if you ever should decide to commercialize a batch.

John - I have done this before but they end up a huge mess by the time I use them. How do you keep them without tangles between now time of use?

I cut pool noodles into 12" sections maybe alittle smaller. Wrap leader around noodle tight and stick hook in noodle. Keeps everything nice and neat.

r22 I don’t take the pre tied leaders in the boat. I keep some hanging in the garage where I prep my rods.  Had the first issue ever with one of these leaders this Friday. Fishing partner was hooked up briefly to what I think was a good fish. When he reeled the slack line in we found the stinger gone. About an inch of line below the octopus hook remained. Best theory we have is the line was cut on the point/barb of the octopus hook.  Was the first time that leader ever had a bait on it. |
