crimps for rigger releases

[dremarquis]

Hi all,

 

i need more of the type of crimp you see in the attached photo. Does anyone know where i can get them? (preferably by order; i'd rather not drive far for them). Or, does anyone have a few extra they would sell and ship to me?

 

thanks,

I would recommend the terminator clips. You use crimps that will more then likely break before a terminator clip. For what it's worth just my 2 cents

I've seen guys use a split shot to accomplish the same thing.  The lead is a little more friendly to the cable.

To answer your question, just search ebay for "fishing line crimps".

Most hardware stores should carry them.. Usually find them in the pull out drawers in the nut and bolt area as far as where to order online not sure

Forget the crimps. Simple overhand knot does the job. Put a piece of heat shrink over it to protect yourself from any frayed ends. Solid connection every time.

What he said, but you will need the Blacks release with the clasp still attached so the release is fixed.  Just add a downrigger swivel to attach the downrigger ball.

No crimps for me, fish doctor wire line knot for mine.  3 seasons no issues runnning 16lbs. torpedos.

You can use insulated butt connectors, just cut the plastic off
