barramundi Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Hi all, Has anyone out there used or is currently using clip on trebles? I've seen some V.M.C.model 4650 on the 'Stamina'web site but they are a bronze finish.I see a lot of newcomers having any amount of trouble trying to use split rings and pliers.If they are as strong as ordinary trebles I'd like to give them a go but I'am having trouble locating them in Austalia. Regards Barramundi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Barramundi[/quote'] One thing you can do is cut a slot in the eye of your trebles with a Dremel type tool, with a cutting disk. You can then apply the hook to the lure and crimp the eye closed. It will not come undone, I promise. Some makes sell Tinned, steel hooks this way.
