*I was pleased with Trilene mono line **enjoyable.fishing** recommend performance (25 lb. test) because it offers smooth casting with no tangles/bird's nest in the spool. And, knots can be tied effectively with ease. I would recommend.*
Bought for my brother, loves fishing. Says works as expected.
Great video! Do you have an opinion about having a crimper that can be calibrated with a stop-screw? I did experiments with mine and found that my pull test results became consistent once I got a crimper that had a stop-screw and became calibrated according to my tests and adjustments. What do you think?
I know this is somewhat late to the party.....but, I fished large yellow fin tuna off of southern Mexico for over 20 years and on ALL of my crimped rigs I used PTFE electrical wire sleeves for anti-chaffing of the hook and swivel loop. It stops the "Crotch Breaks" 100% (never once did I have a failure since using the sleeves). The increased stiffness of the loop allows the hook to swing more freely (added bonus). There are 3 sizes that are perfect for 80 to 200 lb mono. They can be ordered on-line from McMaster-Carr (in Santa Fe Springs, CA). The part numbers are: 5335K15 (.047" ID - 80-100 lb mono/fluor); 5335K16 (.053" ID - 135 lb mono/fluor); 5335K17 (.066" ID - 150-200 lb mono/fluor). All three sizes can be ordered in 10, 25, 50 and 100-foot rolls. 25 ft of each size should last at least a decade. Cut them into 1 1/8" for the 80-100, 1 1/4" for the 135 and 1 3/8" for 150-200. They don't add much to the diameter of the rig, are a translucent clear (similar to fluor) and WORK. Also, DO NOT use the barrel swivels........bearing swivels ONLY. By-the-way....ALWAYS heat and mushroom the tag end exiting the crimp........good solid backup against slippage. Slippage that does not occur on test equipment in a shop DOES NOT reflect the real world as water is a very good lubricant and some slippage will eventually occur. I have noticed a few of my rigs have slipped up to the mushroom end after a prolonged fight with a heavy fish.
If you broke the mono and flouro before the crimp breaks then how did you break the crimp?
What size circle hook is that?
Great video
tnx for info. great video
Top ! after leader you have mono or braid or which line ? i want use 20lbs reel with 60-80lbs braid
do you sell these pre-made? i tried your links, they come back to page not found. if so can you send link, please and thank you.
Take a shot every time he says crimp. Fr tho bro love the content
Interesting running only five feet of flouro. I liked a longer section so I could grab below the swivel. These days I run wind ons unless we're into really large Tuna then I splice 130lb flouro directly to my hollow core. I'll run the flouro a good 10' or more into the hollow. Never understood people splicing 2-3 feet when it takes a minute to splice 10'. I still like 20-25' of flourocarbon as my wind on.
When you are chumming for giant Bluefin Tuna is it also ok to fish either snap swivel?
If you're talking true giants and are using 80-130 class tackle, you should be exclusively crimping your leaders
How can i order?
thanks
Wouldn’t Snelling the circle hook to the Fluro eliminate the crotch breaks you mentioned?
Yes it would,
Does it matter if the crimped loop is small or large? Have you seen failure more with either size?
It is not about failure, it is about keeping the rigging minimal i.e. less visible to the fish.
The only thing I don't like is his choice of swivels. I've found those spro swivels do NOT prevent line twist....You might consider upgrading to a $5 swivel
Big loop on the hook end if it doesn't have a ring so it swivels in the mouth with chafing gear for gbft .mono accultey it heats up then breaks friction with 25 to 55 lbs of drag a fish swiming 30 mph pulling off 500 yards of line ya there's fiction there an stress .so tougher is better
You can simply double up.
I broke my crotch a couple times and man it hurts. Great video, thanks!
Lol that crimp tool is the same as sealine. Exact same to the wire cutter and mono cutter on the side. $45 at turners
Why 80? Lots of times they don't bite heavier than 50 unless you need that for bluefin or something
80 is the min here in SD.
@@petera1117 San Diego? Are you going for the like 150+ lbers?
@@michaelb6349 80-175 is the avg currently. People are under gunned. The overnights are limiting out in a few hrs at night on 300g knife jigs and sinker rigs on 200# test line. My fathom 30s and #60-100 rods are on the light end. Crazy times in SoCal. Daytime using like 60# test but the tooona are still avg over 100#. And it’s May, just wait till Aug. lol.
@@petera1117 those SD multi day trips are absolutely bucket list for me! I'm out of the northeast so we get swords and bigeyes that size and set up for them with similarly heavy gear. The yellow and long fin we go lighter for cause they typically don't get heavier than like 95 lbs
good video ....none of the links work..thumbs down
It says how to tie .the mushroom is in case ur crimp slips an ALL WAYS MUSHROOM UR MONO this guy works in a store not on the water all ways mushroom it will save u a fish .crimping is a art practice at lot test ur gear before u put into the water .that way u won’t tu4n the best day into never wanting to be on the water again .trust me if been 5here

Eagle claw hooks are terrible
Deathwing RUclips lol the trokar hooks are nasty and have accounted for so many big tuna and sharks
No loop protector? FAIL
Offshore Drifter did you even watch it? He's trying to make it more stealthy and talks about using chart tube
Xzyccblahblah promo vid. Nah
Talk about over complicating a simple rig.
What’s so complicated? Seems pretty simple
WTF's a crotch break? 4:37 .... it'll break every time, theres no thimble! FF's ???
Noooo noo
All tools the same the name don't make shit
There is a big difference...in his profit.
