Location: Ontario		I asked this question about a month back in the thread about crimping leaders, there was no answer at that time- Thanks BNelson!
Is there complete table somewhere about sizing?

Location: Contrarian Island		hi seas 1.3 mm are perfect for 130 lb.... for 180 use 1.6 mm...can get 100 on ebay for about 8 bux
for anything under 130 I use the same 1.3 mm..they are a bit bigger but the 1.0 mm ones are narrower so your crimper is over both ends which is not preferred so I use the 1.3 mms for say 100 lb if I ever use that which is about never

Location: Thief River Falls MN		I would look into the Jinkai Aluminum sleeves. LI would be the size for 130#. Have had great success over the years. Initial cost for SC-2C or SC-3 crimping pliers is about $40 but it is a nice tool that will last forever.
