Does anyone have any experience on this subject?

Thanks!!

 

In the past, I've used the steel leaders/crimps but i'd like to go a more stealthy route.

Who has used mono? i think the STE 60/80/100lb might be too thick.

 

I just rigged up some 25lb CXX Palomar on both end trap rigs 8-)

it was hard to get the length how i wanted it but i think it'll work :D !!

I've used the rig from southern trout eaters with the 80lb and the crimps, and I like that a lot. I don't have much fish experience with it yet, but the few that I have caught had no chance of breaking that rig.

This rig is MONEY. I havent has a single failure yet.

 

 

I have also done the palmar knot thing using braid, and it works.

 

You can also try what my buddy Jeremy does. I've never done it but he says it always holds.

I used maxima 60 for back hooks with no problems at all i bet 30 would even work but I kind of quit using stingers long ago.

 

 

u know when u catch 30 swimbait fish every time u go out like u do then theres no need for a stinger hook :lol:
