OK Bass Hunter Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Bought some generic weight pegs from the local tackle shop and after about 3 or 4 fish they are pretty much gone or shredded. I need someone to recommend a weight stopper/peg that can hold up better. Quote

Super User BassinLou Posted August 27, 2014 Super User Posted August 27, 2014 These stoppers slip right into tungsten weights to give it a nice snug fit. http://www.alleystungsten.com/Terminal_Tackle.html 1 Quote

Super User Wayne P. Posted August 27, 2014 Super User Posted August 27, 2014 8"-10" of a single strand of a stranded electrical wire bent double and some rubber bands. Push the wire through the slip sinker on the line and stick a rubber band in the wire bend and pull it inside the sinker. Cut off the excess. Quote
ABW Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I like the Eagle Claw bobber stops, or you can just use an old jig skirt 1 Quote

Nice ideal, kinda reminds me of Gamblers brass/ rattle sinker ( bullet ) but with common materials.. Nice Tip! Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted August 28, 2014 Super User Posted August 28, 2014 Nice ideal, kinda reminds me of Gamblers brass/ rattle sinker ( bullet ) but with common materials.. Nice Tip! Actually it is a cheap version of a Mojo weights kit. Quote
MichBassMan Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 8"-10" of a single strand of a stranded electrical wire bent double and some rubber bands. Push the wire through the slip sinker on the line and stick a rubber band in the wire bend and pull it inside the sinker. Cut off the excess. I do the same thing, but I use #14 mono instead of wire. Keep several size rubber bands handy because sinkers vary. I use thin rubber bands or skirt material for tungsten sinkers. Quote
LunkerFisher Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I've been using those thread bobber stops and they seem to work pretty well. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted August 28, 2014 Global Moderator Posted August 28, 2014 cheap rubber bobber stops do it as good as anything I've ever tried. Quote

Super User Montanaro Posted August 29, 2014 Super User Posted August 29, 2014 To expand on my comment. ..I've tried most brands on TW (they just got new ones in I'll try) and they either did not stay in place or ripped when coming through cover. I actually threw vike punch stops away. Eagle claw is OK but you need to put 2 on. Quote
