mjk Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Fleet Farm is clearing out all their Frabill Fluoro leaders.Normally 2.99/2pk, now .99cThe 25lb leaders have held up very well over the years for pike.They also have 15lb, and 8lb for eyes.I used to tie my own, but every year they go on sale, so I just load up. The VMC hooks they use are darn good.Sale ends 1.31.14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawg Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Why would you pay $2.99 for 2 pieces of line and 2 hooks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't; please attempt to read the entire post, before attaching your witty commentary... I know it requires some attention to detail.

20lbSloughShark Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 From what I calculate it is usually about $2 for a quick strike, and $1 for a single hook for me. 99 cents for two is a great deal no matter what. I would shy away from 25# test fluoro for pike. I've been bitten off a few times with 50#. Any line works just fine for any fish until you have one on worth catching. My 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeguy 54 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 thanks for the info. I call this old faithful. Works great for me. I have a swivel snap at the end of my black line that I hook to the leader. Nice and cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyeguy 54 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 lol. might look funny but the last 11 fish averaged 8 pounds. I did miss one today. grrrrrrrr ! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikerliker Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 ^ salty +1 on that. There are lots of people who foolishly spend money on things but hey it's their money. I would question more why someone would spend hundreds of dollars more just to have the "latest" model of something, rather than going after the guy who spent .99 on a leader...
