Hi All,

Has anyone ever come across this youtube clip on how to make a shrimp lure using straws?
I was quite impressed and made a few myself and they came out great with a little bit of practice....

Last post

Yeah, they are little works of art indeed, but I'll pay a few bucks and buy some for actual fishing. These will just get destroyed after a fish or two, after all that work.

I was giving about 4ft of #100 Titanium wire leader. How do you tie a knot with those wire ? I already ruined about one feet of those expensive wire trying.

I always used a uni to uni for the flexible wire and never had an issue. Less turns on the higher test.

When using 100 or greater I use 3 wraps
