| STAY-LOK™ POWER
SNAPS (black) Size 5 (300lb) (10 pack):
£4.00 Size 4 (250lb) (10 pack): £3.75 Size 3 (200lb) (10
pack): £3.50 Size 2 (100lb) (10 pack): £3.25 Size 1 (50lb)
(10 pack): £3.00 Stainless steel wire with rounded end for better lure
movement and a unique locking system. A little tricky to open and close at first,
but once you have the knack they are simple to use. Better still they are neat
and strong. Will to do to other snaps what Power Swivels have done to ordinary
swivels - make them obsolete. Size 4 for jerkbaits and big lures, size 3 for medium
lures/bait fishing, size 2 for light lures/bait fishing. Size 5 for those trips
to foreign climes! |
| SMART
LOCK SNAPS Size 5/100lb (10 pack):
£2.00 Size 3/70lb (10 pack): £1.50 Size 2/45lb (10 pack):
£1.50 A new twist on an old style.
Bench tests prove these to be strong enough for any piking application. At a little
over one inch (28mm) in length for the size 5 they are suitable for medium-large
lure fishing. The design of the snap is such that it can be fitted through the
eye of any of my jig heads, which is a first in a snap this strong.
The size 3 also fits through jig eyes and is suitable
for small to medium lures and for bait fishing. Size
2 for lighter jobs. |

POWER SWIVELS
Sizes 8 (195lb), 10 (100lb), 12 (60lb), 14 (45lb): All £1.00 per 10,
£4.25 per 50 The swivel that has made all others obsolete! Neat, round,
stainless steel eye for strength and reliability. The thicker wire of these swivel
eyes makes for improved knot strength in comparison with other swivels of similar
size. Sizes 8 or 10 for general fishing - I use the 8s on my crankbait traces.
Size 12 or 14 for ultralight or fly traces, or other rig applications.
MAGNUM POWER SWIVELS
Size 5 (295lb): £1.25 per 10, £5.25 per 50 The jerkbaiter's
perfect swivel. Also suitable for other heavy predator fishing situations. Simply
the best. No question. MEGA

The continental cat, Nile perch, or sturgeon hunter's dream swivel. Already tested

 | LARGE
EYE SWIVELS : £2.95 per 50 A
rolling type swivel with one big eye and one size 8 eye. I add a Hooked Snap or
paper-clip for a free running lead attachment - but there must be other uses.... Not
recommended for attaching to hooklinks. See here. |

WAY SWIVEL: Size 12 £1.00 per ten Similar
