Knot(s) Copper Braid to Snap/Swivel

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Knot(s) Copper Braid to Snap/Swivel

Post by HEX »

For many years I have always used a simple haywire twist when attaching single strand copper wire to a snap/swivel on my deep water trolling rig(s). However, I have recently been given a spool of the softer, 30lb test copper 7 Strand braid and would like to give it a try.

I would appreciate if someone could offer me advice on which knots they use when attaching this softer copper braid to the snap/swivel. I am thinking the Improved Clinch? Many thanks.....

Not sure for copper, google is probably your friend there.

For 7 strand wire I use two simple overhand knots.
