single strand wire

[greybeard]

I know in past posts that some of youse guys bought wire from McMaster Carr, being I mainly fish Erie, I pull cranks on single strand stainless , Was wondering if anyone here ever bought the single strand from them in a bulk spool and if its a safe to ASS U ME that by matching diameter if its a close match to LB test say to American trolling wire, I know its a helluva lot cheaper

My buddy Andy runs it. It is a lot easier to clean fleas off of it. He uses a razor blade. The only problem is WD40ing the reels after every use.

I am no expert on wire but the 2 things you will have to watch out for are kinks and memory.
