2 WAY BEADS

#1 Post by mickeyfish »

Lads i use these a lot on my traces both shore & boat, & am building up my stock of tackle for next year, just wondering has anybody came across any sites which offer athem at a good price as they can be quite expensive in the tackle shops.

regards

mick

happy christmas to all

not too sure what these 2 way beads are.

But well done on getting the club Secretary's job. A lot of hard work involved in this position. I've all ways considered the Secretary as the hub of the club. If it's your first time doing it you will be amazed on the amount of info you will recieve. Sorry for goig off topic but club secretary's are the joy and pain of my life. You might have noticed this from previous mails.

Mickey,

Hiro make them, Southside Angling stock Hiro, they should have them, they're not that expensive IMO.

Mick,

I got a load of beads from http://www.tacklebargains.co.uk a few years back and have not bought beads since. :lol:
They do a bulk fishing tackle section on left hand side of home page down at the end. Dont ever remember seeing two way beads on it though.

Have seen Mustad two way beads on http://www.spottydog.com at 1.29 sterling for 20.

You could try both of these with an email to see if they will do a bulk price.

Good luck

thanks for the feedback lads,

donal you asked what i use them for
basically instead of swivels as they are transparent at times they work & stand off better & handy for putting high fliers on your traces in the boat

Been getting mine from Veals, grauvel were the manufacturers but found that the medium size ones were a bit big and the smalls were too bloody small! Mustad were doing ones in medium that were just right for shore rigs but havent seen them online for a while
