Line Quality – Is
quality line worth the extra money? You decide!
Ever wonder why some lines have
to be “seasoned" to sink, while other lines sink without
seasoning? The lighter (cheaper) line starts out with a
fiber core with the premium grade line (like nylon or polyester)
spun around the fiber core to make the finished line. In order
for the fiber core lines to sink, the fiber core must absorb
water to become heavier in order to sink, thus so named “
seasoning.”
In addition to the sinking
factor, the life of the line is much less (2-3 years on average)
because the outer shell wears thru to the fiber core and the
line breaks continually resulting in you having to replace your
line every 2-3 years.
Captain Bruce’s lines do not have fiber fillers. All lines are
made in the manufacturing process by using ALL polyester, or ALL
nylon, resulting in a heaver “SINKING LINE” because they don’t
have a soft filler core. If your line is not sinking to the
bottom (on its own), you are not going to catch as many crabs.
In addition to the self-sinking line, Captain Bruce’s line will
last up to 3 times longer (9-10 years) on average.
Some customers have reported that they have been using this type
of quality line for 20 years or more and its still being used
today. When Captain Bruce inquired as to what is the secrets to
keeping a line that long they all say just take care of it.
Taking care of it means use it as often as you want, but when
you are not using it, keep in out of the sun, and dry it out and
store it dry in the off season.
This is another example of you get what You pay for! It’s your
choice! You can pay a little more and buy a quality line
that will last for many years, or you can save a little money
and buy a cheaper line that will only last you a few years.

SNOODED TROT LINES
- With all of these options, what's the difference?
PROS
CONS
#5
Main Lines
It's inexpensive. It's the line of choice for the beginning or occasional recreational crabber, it's made from nylon and will not rot and will last for years.
If
you are not careful when you are baiting, or bringing in back in
from the water, the loops in the lines will turn into knots.
#8
Solid Braid
Cheaper than the 3 strand, and stays soft, easy on the hands when you pull line in, less likely to knot up than #5, if
a loop develops
usually all you have to do is shake it out.
None.
It's a good all around line.
3
strand nylon
The "Cadillac" of all lines and also the most expensive, but you get what you pay for. It's been reported with proper care that this line will last 20 years
and if you get a loop in your line when you're letting it out, just shake it out and very rarely gets knotted up.
This is also the line preferred by commercial crabbers who use "line winders" because it has great wear
resistance.
Some might say it's the price, but you get what
you pay for with proper care this line can last
20 years.
Snoods 1/8"
Thinner snoods are more "flexible" and absorb more vibrations resulting in less crabs dropping off your line with more crabs coming to the surface... The bottom line is at the end of the day you will catch more crabs.
If they snag they will break easier than 3/16" snoods, but are easily replaced using a slip knot. So buy a extra pack for replacements.
Snoods 3/16"
Won't break as easy as 1/8" dia snoods if you get your snood line hung up. That's why most Commercial Crabbers prefer the 3/16" snoods over the 1/8" snoods. They are more durable than 1/8" dia snoods, and work better with line winders.
3/16" dia being thicker have a little less elasticity than the 1/8" dia snoods, but a lot of recreational crabbers also prefer using them.

U-Make Wire Snood Net Kit
(With hog ring pliers) Item #237
Kit comes with 6" W x 48" galvanized wire with SS hog
rings and hog ring pliers.
As you are dipping crabs from a snood line using a
regular wire dip net, the snoods can fall through the
large holes in your net and jerk the net right out of
your hands.
Now you can prevent this from happening by converting your trot line dip nets into a Snood Line dip net.
Just follow the pics to install (takes about 1/2 hr to complete).

SNOODED HAND LINES
PROP STICKS
Snood lines are not just for
Commercial and Recreational crabbers ANYMORE!
If you ever used a hand line, you can use a snooded hand line.
It's as easy as 1,2,3…
Unwind the crab line and
tie the end with the handle to either your boat, bridge or pier.
Just put a chicken neck in
the snoods ,put the snood tight against the neck
and throw the it in the
water!
Bait your line by putting a
chicken neck in each of the snoods, put the snood tight against the
neck and throw the end of the line with the weight in the water.
When the line gets tight (the crabs will be feeding on your bait)
slowly pull in the line in (hand over hand slowly) until you bring
the crab to the surface and dip the crab with your net (it's that
easy even your kids will have fun doing it!) And you can even catch
more than 1 crab at a time (because each 12' line comes with 2
snoods). You can have your
own snooded hand line to use on your boat or from any pier or
bridge.
