Striper Lure Question

Featured Replies

  • Super User

Guys I am changing hooks of my big striper lures to be ready, In stick shad I ass swivel to first hook which is always recommended. In the back side I removed the back treble hook and I add a double hook, Now I need amazon link to buy feather to add to the back double hook.

Not sure about feather  but is that swivel rated for stripers? It looks awfully undersized, especially for the striper it looks like you're targeting.

if I go larger, it will be long and hook will tangle with line in casting, Or get the back hook will retrieving. I am looking for stronger swivel but short. going for stripers on Thursday, so I have time to find something(hopefully).

I had this line trough skirt, I add one snap and split ring to prevent from going down and I add it. I think it will be ok for now. But I need to get fly tie tools and start get into that so I can make anything I like.

Not sure the length of the one in your picture but I'd look at something with a solid ring and a little heavier built like this.

I have all the swivels, Very heavy duty, I am using them for shark fishing, But they will get longer and longer when going higher LB test. I have some crane swivel that I like them a lot and they are compact 450lb, I might change to that.

You may want to bring scissors with you, that skirt looks a little too bushy and may kill the action a bit. You can thin out as needed with the scissors.

 

Good luck!

Not a good option from shore. They tend to get hung up occasionally. Easy to recover

from a boat, gonner from shore.
