A mono leader tied to swivel ran thru the tubing and down thru the bullet weight with a double or triple knot and then crimped off. Much stronger to pull against rather than only the grip of the shrink tube.

Using 50 lbs leaders to the hook is crazy. I troll Beaver Lake for stripers and use 20 lb mono. I use 17 lb mono for leaders, as I can’t break 20 lb. I have to wrap my whole arm 4-5 times and pull like the dickens. Using 50 lb line I’d have to cut it, which I hate. Thirty to forty pound stripers will swim up 50’ to grab a bait. Best to change their mind before they head back to the top of submerged tree tops. Sixty four lb 8 oz striper was caught at Beaver in March of 99.

I feel there’s a better way to seal these then jusy shrink tubing… also how does it stay together? Just the shrink tubing?
@chevyemert5655
@chevyemert5655 9 ай бұрын
Maybe there is. This way just something I throw together that worked well. The shrink does hole it all together. I’ve used them a bunch over the years and haven’t had any issues other than the do seem to bend where the foam meets the lead. It’s doesn’t hurt anything structurally and moves through the water straight.

Tip, keep the heat shrink in the blue part of the flame, otherwise you can burn the heat shrink. Going to try this out, but I will use my heat gun and not the lighter.

Drive a finish nail into the bullet weight To plug the hole. Then you can just snip it off some cutters.

Hey man there’s a reason patrol cars have the red light switch in the unit. The red light actually helps you retain your natural night vision(also helps you see in the car but doesn’t let others see YOU in the car lol but we talking about fishing here) so if red light works the best to keep the bugs off then that’s kind of a good thing if you have decent night vision. Plus it turns a hot & sweaty night into a romantic hot and sweaty night 👌 😂😂 jk but yea red light helps you maintain night vision!

I fish Ft. London some and Tellico but mainly Wattsbar. I have finally gotten to where I can throw my cast net good but having trouble finding shad. I have searched the back waters like you said but they seem to get very shallow quickly. I have a good fish finder but obviously doesn’t work in 1 to 2 foot of water. Am I just going the wrong time of year? I have been trying to find shad in January. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Quick question, think 1/4 inch mesh is ok for catching the shallow water gizzards or should I go with 3/8” or 1/2” mesh? All I’ve got are 1/4” mesh nets.
@downriverfishing3639
@downriverfishing3639 2 жыл бұрын
1/4 will work but the problem you will have is catching a shit ton of thread fins. It’s super annoying to try and get them out of the net. The larger mesh will allow most of them to swim free.
@tmise50
@tmise50 Жыл бұрын
I ended up getting a 5 footer with 1/2” mesh. Also it’s 1.5 lbs per foot, much easier for me to throw.
