I’m rigging lures for Wahoo for the first time and had a basic question. I’m using single strand wire, should I attach it to the split ring or remove the split ring and Albright direct to the eye?
I’ve looked on line and it seems it’s done both ways.
Thanks a lot, hope everyone is doing OK in these weird times.
The split ring is a point of failure…IMO. Unless it’s rated for a certain load get rid of it…IMO.

Thanks a lot!

I’ve ran similar lures and used a mighty mini snap/coastlock swivel, I think like around a 200# swivel. They pulled straight and ran natural and caught fish and never had a issue. I could switch lures in a snap but this wasn’t high-speed trolling.
Thanks 40, that sounds like a good idea for flexibility.
Hoping to get out tomorrow if the weather holds
cheers
