21xdc Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 I buy the black SS 20lb split rings from www.lurepartsonline.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnart Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Different places sell them, Jann's Netcraft is another idea. Just don't make the mistake I did, I tried to save some money and found some (dang it I can't remember where now) that were pretty cheap. I thought split rings are split rings, well they're not. These are a gold color but they bend really easy. When I'm using the split ring pliers they bend very easy and I've thrown more away than used. I don't trust a big fish wouldn't pull the hooks off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayburnGuy Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Split rings and hooks are NOT the place to try and save money. When you have a fish of a lifetime open the split rings and swim away with just the hook in it's mouth it will make you want to cry. And I wasn't even using cheap split rings when it happened. It still made me sick to my stomach though. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatorbitu Posted October 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Thanks for the replies, definitely not looking for cheap split rings. Just quality stainless steel in bulk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishnart Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Yeah, I didn't know there were such split rings, I'd never seen them like that before. I just thought they were a good price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
