Teaser Help
Submitted by milsey on Sat, 2011-12-03 10:06
Hey guys
I’m making up a couple of teasers, an umbrella style and a witch doctor style. My question is what do you have as a trace, my last one lasted less than 30mins before the 300lb wire trace got bitten through. Also do you think wire is needed for the strands of the umbrella rig?
Like I said I didn’t get to check the state of the last one as when we hooked up first it was gone but i think some of the strands got done before the whole lot.
Thanks

For a witch doctor style teaser
I don't think wire is a necessity. I lost one out at the trench years ago when someting ate it but I don't think a steel trace would have saved it. I have never used an umbrella style teaser but I'd prefer not to hook up on something that can bite through 300lb wire trace and would therefore go with mono. If you are targetting the toothy critters then that's a different matter.
