Wire Fishing Line Steel Leader: 10lb - 200lb Test Knottable Fishing Leader Making for Saltwater Rigging - 32.8ft Nylon Coated 7 Strands Silver String Wire with 20pcs Sleeves

came very quickly in mail. pretty good for price.

I had a problem with squirrels eating through the line to my bird feeders, so I thought this might do the job. I have the feeders hung up in a tree and have small pullies to keep the lines out of the way. I used the 120lb line, and it works great, until the crimps fail. I have three feeders set up this way, and now I am out of crimps. The wire comes with 12 crimp sleeves and I only needed 6 to build the lines, but in 2 months, 6 of the crimps have failed; they split/cracked up one side. I had purchased a "Booms Fishing Heavy-Duty Hand Crimper" when I bought the wire to make sure I did this properly, but now I will need to figure out the proper size to get, and buy some quality crimp sleeves. Still, I bought this for the wire and the vinyl coating, and that part is really great. When a crimp fails for me, the feeder is on the ground. If I was using this for fishing, I would be down 6 rigs.

I am giving a 5 star review because the quality of the wire is so high even though the crimps do not work.Pros:1. Great quality wire, I have had many snags using 80lb braided line and the line always breaks.2. You can almost tie this, I recommend using a "figure 8 knot" and tightening it with pliers. Do an internet video search for "figure 8 knot multistrand fishing leader" and you should find how to do this. Since this line is a bit springy there is NO WAY you can use a haywire twist with it. You need pliers to tighten the figure 8 knot though.3. nice priceCons:1. Crimps are not the right size, I bought a special crimping tool and could break the crimp easily with my hands each time. Maybe they work fine with the lighter versions. I am fishing for large fish using 80lb test and I need full strength. As I mentioned above you can use a figure 8 knot and tighten with pliers.

Packaging was good, although it took a little doing to get the sleeves out. I was making a hanging wire for a birdfeeder in a corner area. After making a loop at both ends and using the enclosed sleeves, I installed using a turnbuckle. Before I could get it tight between the two eyelets, the wire snapped. There might have been 50 pounds pressure. The wire snapped, but the loop with the sleeves held. Normally, by thumbing the wire or string between two points, it sounds like a very low bass guitar string.....I never got to that point.

There are 7-8 little wire connector pins. Needed more pines, could nt find, but product worked well. I’m going to buy another one for emergencies.

Perfect for Muskie lure building. I hate working with stiff wire, this stuff is awesome. Caught 2 40" on it with no breakage. One did kink it but it stood the test. Stiff wire kinks too (easier in my experience)

I like making my own leaders. This is durable and stands up to extreme stress. Add this to your tackle box. Worth the cost.

great wire leader no issues so far

Would be better it you could Ty nots on hooks etc

Génial filin d'acier avec les bagues de bonne grandeur rien à chercher tout est là
