| Does anybody use shrinktube on their leaders to prevent line from being cut by the wrappings?
Do you use a snap, a snap + swivel or a splitring?
I use a coastlok snap. |

| I dont and havent had a problem with a break off. Interesting thought though. I use split rings and no snaps. And will use a swivel as well. But not always. |

| 120 pound single wire with a snap at one end and a BB swivle at the other. I don't like to use a split ring in place of the swivle, I have had the ring "unwind" itself while casting. |

| This year I'm taking some of my favorite gliders and giving them all their own, permanently attached leaders.
Kinda like Strikers or Eddies. I figure that the wire loop that I make is stronger than any ring or snap. This will also force me to retie more often....something I never do enough.
Besides, it's a good reson to keep me in the basement til the season starts [;)]

| Beaver, that is a wise move. I keep extra leaders in the boat that are ready with a loop and all I need to do is just fasten it to the bait.
Dirk, I have been shrink tubing over my leader crimps and twists for about 15 years now. My belief is that if you have a weak spot those big girls will find it. |
