Anyone know if their is such a item as a braid resisted sinker slider and if so what do they look like? Thanks for any help on this :huh:

I have bought them in the past, most B&T shops have them........all my stuff is in NJ and I don't remember what they look like....:huh:

 

[PalmersTackle]

but i have seen them blue also
i have the yellow one's for sale--pm if interested

 

[Super Googan]

Don't waste your Money,.... Use a 60 Barrel swivel, and Two beads It Tangles alot less then the commercial sliders and is cheaper. Thats All i use on the beach because I got fed up with the tangles the commercial ones made in Heavy surf.

Interesting... I'm trying to visualize that. Do you have a pic?

Visualize end of braid pass through a bead then through a swivel then through another bead. uni knott to treminal tackle attach hook.You can use either conn link or breakway clip on the slide swivel to attach sinker. hope this helped you .

I have heard of them but never used them generally they are yellow but I have heard mixed things about their durablility in relationship to regular slides.

I use them in the surf and on the boat.......never have a problem, but dont really hit the surf all that often anymore. I have them in yellow, green and blue.

Used a fish finder once on Brad line and it was enough!! Go with a Hateres fish finder rig with Brad lines.:thumbsup:

Funny thing is that I had braid slice right through one of those during the spring. I always used a shock leader of 50 lb mono anyways so I just put the slider on that.

That's exactly what I was talking about with the durability issues.

So I wasnt the only one.... Hah.

Right on the money Joe... been using these with braid forever on the boat and in the surf...

The barrel swivel is a good idea, but couldn't you just use a snap swivel?

Sure Why Not...I only suggested the Barrel Swivel because I buy ALL my terminal tackle separate, Swivels and Dou snaps... The snap swivels I do own are too small for surf fishing...
