I bring line with me and retie 3ds when they show wear then i split into 2 more harnesses with single blades. Capt wire is the way ill get stuff soon to make wire harnesses up myself

hey lineman, i was out yesterday at sp from 8am - 8pm long day detmined to get this thing down. i landed 1 running d.r., dispy and snap weight - finally went to using one line - kept crossing up - you guys make it sound easy - oh well i guess i'll get better with practice the one i caught was 28" 5lbs.

Wishin, I run all my lines back the same distance & also make sure you have your dipsy set for the correct side of the boat

Bailey, I do the same thing,useing 40# mono with diff. clevises, Do you retie with mono or steel cable? If cable what type/kind, size & do you use crimps or tie knots ? Thanks for any info.

[bailey]

Just with mono right now but need to get wire stuff its the only way.

Fished out of S.P. today boxed 7 , 3-7 #s Mostly on hatchet blades harnesses, bkl/rasberry; nuc. green (was best); blk/purple. dipsys & riggers did best. 60-68 fow west of abino. Beautiful day on the lake.

Fishkiller, nice article, congrats again. Do you by chance live on 77 near minkle ? I use to hunt that land before your house was there , shot a few deer off the hi spot to the n/east of the house. I think I saw your boat in the yard the other day, nice area.

Yes thats my house I have shot many deer off that same knoll during drives. i killed a 140" 9 pt back in my orchard 3 yrs ago.

Anyone else loosing their harnesses ? I have had 3-4 3 d,s lost & I beleive it due to the mono being cut by the spinner clevis cutting thru the mono, They seem to use the wrong type clevis & at the prices they get for them I think they would use wire instead of mono. I am goiing to try to contact them.

Its not the clevises its the beads chaffing the line I have complained to Jim Dolly about using mono line, as soon as I bring them home I cut them apart and tie them on 30 lb red coated wire and the new hooks they are using this year also suck. I use only Mustad 2/0 beak hooks (model 92553) in silver or red. As far as the finish they are using it sucks also but that Nucular Green works so good. 3D has always replaced them when I had any issues.

Fishkiller, where do you get the red coated wire line if I may ask?
