When you’re fishing with hard baits and treble hooks, you might be risking losing fish without even knowing it.
Most treble hooks are attached to lures with split rings, but this type of attachment doesn’t allow for much range of motion.
If a fish spins and twists the hook, the hook can get locked up against the split ring, which could increase the chances of your fish popping off.
So, what can you do about it?
You can try attaching your hooks to your lures with braided line, instead of metal split rings.
Braided line “split rings” allow for much more range of motion, which could decrease the chance of your fish coming unbuttoned.
In this video, I’ll show exactly how to do that, plus share a little more about the potential hazards of using metal split rings.
Have you tied hooks to your lures with braided line before?
Have any questions about this method?
Let me know in the comments below.
If you want the benefits of braided line split rings, but don’t want to tie them yourself, you can buy them already made.
