Sleeves for strong and neat leader connections
Sleeves are used to create strong loops and clean connections in wire, thick fluorocarbon and heavy-duty nylon. They are especially useful for predator, catfish and sea fishing leaders.
How sleeves work
A sleeve is a small metal tube that is crimped with the correct tool. The leader material is passed through the sleeve, looped and crimped to create a compact, strong connection without tying a knot.
Choose the right size and tool
Correct sizing matters. A sleeve that is too large or too small can weaken the connection. Use a proper crimping tool and match the sleeve to the leader material.
Use sleeves with crimps and sleeves, predator fishing hooks, swivels and terminal tackle.
