carp-matt Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 Hey guys, New here and wanted some advice. I go fishing once a year in France and like the quick change safety Lead clip set up but im having trouble finding some good quality ones. can anyone give me a link to buy some good ones? These are the sort of things im looking for : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fox-NEW-Carp-Fishing-Kwik-Change-Safety-Lead-Clips-On-Rig-Tubing-Brown-/230986273339?pt=UK_SportingGoods_FishingAcces_RL&hash=item35c7dad23b cheers guys, Matt Quote
newmarket Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 I dont like the look of them myself , looks too much that can go wrong to me . Do you mind me asking why you need these ? If i wanted to fish with lead clips i'd just change rigs using a quick clip . Just curious Quote
beanz Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 iv use quick change swivels( like in link)for years, not on lead clips though, and never ever had a link slip off, iv used them with anti tangle sleeves or just a few mm of silicon tube , like i said..never had a problem apart from in the middle of the night and trying to get braided loops on i have had links slip out of the key hole shaped ones on a few occasions , maybe something to do with me?? i wasnt sure, but it dented my confidence.

Just curious When I first went the other year I was told to use something like this as its safer, its just preference now. Quote
newmarket Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 Ok mate thanks . I hope someone comes on here later who uses 'em and gives a detailed reason for em I dont use tubing myself and nearly always use running rigs . Cant get much safer than that but im always up for learning something new . Welcome to the forum by the way matt Quote
dalthegooner Posted May 26, 2014 Report Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) I use these lead clips, with these quick change swivels, and this tubing (Changing colour dependent on where I am fishing). Never had any issues with them whatsoever. Although, the ones you have posted seem fine to me (Although, I prefer tungsten tubing. I have more confidence that it is hugging the lake bed).

Yea its just I once bought some cheap ones and every time I casted, the cone would slip and I would lose my weight haha Thanks for the links! Edited May 26, 2014 by carp-matt Quote
