mark poulson Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 Who carries a strong split ring, in a hobbyist quantity? I'd really like them in the 3,4, and 5 sizes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 How many do you really want? The smaller the quantity the more they cost. Also split rings come in fine, standard and heavy duty. Barlow's carries them all at pretty decent prices. If you need large amounts Worth is your best bet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATFLATTIE Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 I got mine from Barlows. I got some heavy duty ones for making big inline spinners. I have caught some nice bass on them with heavy rods using braid and they have held up just fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centigrade Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 I have been buying mine from captain hooks warehouse. #2's are 20 lb and bending out pretty bad on smaller fish. Wolf Wire is the brand. I'm on the search for something better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 I wouldn't trust Wolf split rings for fishing tackle. Had way too many failures with them. I buy my split rings from Worth. Around $20/1000. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around $20/1000. Im looking for rings in the 5mm-6mm area. mostly for bass baits like the ones dinger has. Also trying to find some decent oval splits but i do not understand the sizing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf Wire is the brand. I'm on the search for something better I bought some 80 lb. #2's from LPO a while back. Haven't pull tested them, but the wire isn't much thicker than the 20 lb.

Centigrade Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Worth split rings are very nice. I received samples last week but cannot afford to order because the high shipping cost to canada. For bass guys worth's oval #5s are the same as unpaintedlures has on his site. The #2 and #3 regular Stainless Steel seem good for most my applications, consisting of lures 2-5 inches long with hook sizes 6-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Young Posted August 29, 2016 Report Share Posted August 29, 2016 Have you tried this Canadian supplier? I don't know a thing about them - other than that they are in Canada. http://www.luremaking.com/catalogue/catalogue-index/catalogue-items/bright_stainless_steel_split_rin.htm Quick factoid: At least 90% of all Canadian suppliers are located in Canada.

I can look into getting some samples from them but prices tend to be the same as what it costs me after shipping and exchange. Typically I prefer buying direct from US and take a bit of a hit on our dollar then to buy from a Canadian company buying from the US and marking me up 50-100%. 60$ for the oval splits on luremaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
