Kevinzap Posted February 23, 2021 Report Share Posted February 23, 2021 I use them religiously. They’re the strongest ive ever used. So strong you’re probably gonna need to buy beefier pliers to open em up. You won’t be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachThomas Posted February 23, 2021 Report Share Posted February 23, 2021 They are amazing but you will need a split ring tool because they are super strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan B Posted February 24, 2021 Report Share Posted February 24, 2021 I got the green Texas tackle pliers (large) for ultra split rings in 5-7. They didn’t cut it for swimbait size ultra split rings. those ultra rings are serious. There is one larger size XL Texas tackle someone might have had better luck with but l ended up going crazy and getting the HPA split ring pliers. (https://www.tunafishtackle.com/product/hpa-split-ring-pliers/) 70 bones for split ring pliers? Overkill? Maybe. Awesome? definitely. nrx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StriperAddict Posted February 24, 2021 Report Share Posted February 24, 2021 Some of the thicker hook hangers are to big. The rings wont close back up correctly if you force them on. The rings are crazy strong though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwp Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 If you are looking for something stronger than hyper wires, but not as overkill as the ultra's, check out the spro power rings. I use them in size 5 and 6 depending on bait size. For comparison, size 5: Owner hyper - 60lb Spro power - 90lb Owner ultra - 110lb size 6: Owner hyper - 70lb Spro power - 150lb Owner ultra - 150lb CG_Fishes, Thiskidlikes2fish and nrx 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
