Fishing Knots - Stranded Cable - How to Tie to on a Lure

Wire leaders for fishing. Capt. Chris Myers demonstrates how to tie on lures, hooks, or swivels using 7 strand cable without crimps. Use this method when you are fishing for species with teeth or abrasive lips. Cable is easier to work with than wire and will last longer. www.flatsfishingtrips.com

I've been looking for a knot to use ever since a King Mackerel bit off my 200 lbs fluorocarbon leader with my brand new lure. I'm looking forward to setting this knot up this weekend.

Good luck!

[@bunnychow5769]

Works very well 👌

[@CaptChrisMyers]

The are various brands but you want 7 strand wire. The 30 pound does fine for me even on sharks.

[@johnechterhoff4791]

I'm going to try that. What lb. test is that leader material? It seems a lot like a haywire twist when using heavier wire. Thanks!

[@bandmasterjf]

What size wire are you using. I've got the same brand 30lb.
