This is the type of wire that I use, but not necessarily from Jann's. It is available from several outlets in different guage size. You can also use the straight wire with no bends and do both ends, it does save a little money. I would not recommend going any smaller in diameter than the .030 as any thing smaller is almost to flimsy or any size larger than .035 or .036 as it is to hard to make clean twisted closed ends. Just put your beads and blade on just like using a mono/flouro leader. They will get beat up but you can continue to use them so long as the blade still spins freely with out worrying about break offs.

Here is a link to show you what the wire form looks like.

Here is the link to the coated wire cable for the hook snells. I use red or black.

I just use a small snap to attach the snells to the wire form.

Disclaimer: I am in no way advocating you should get your supplies from Jann's although they are available there and are a reputable business. I only posted the sites as reference to show pictures of what I use.
