benton B 42 Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share All three of you baits look great. Is that copper wire from Wal-mart? If so it won't hold up and will break. Quote Link to comment
Saffie 11 Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Thanks for the comment. The wire is 20 gage from the jewelry section at Michaels. Any suggestions on where to get better wire? Thanks again, Quote Link to comment
benton B 42 Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Go to Mcmaster Carr.com and order some 18 and 20 gage stainless steel wire and some 18 gage brass wire. These come in 1/4lb spools and that will last you a long time. I used some that wire you have and I was tuning the bait after two small fish and the line tie broke off. I can also walk you thru replacing the line ties on those baits if you want me to. Just send me a PM. Quote Link to comment
