stricko4 Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Raiders, Having just gotten interested in lure fishing I need some advice. I need to replace a trebble on an SX40 that has broken. What is the recommneded replacement & how difficult is it to remove the old & fit the new. With my very limited experience at this with larger metal lures I think I'll be struggling.

framedtrash Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 cant go wrong with owner trebbles get yourself a pair of split ring plyers can get cheap ones for around $10 with the plyers its a very easy process takes a few seconds to switch them over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Iceman Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 I use owner ST36s size 14 I think for SX40s There is a tool made by Smith called a splitring pincette made for changing trebles in small sizes Looks like a pair of tweezers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys I picked up a pair at the local tackle store & made the change so simple. They are worth their weight in gold. I wish I could change the big trebbles on larger lures as easily. Spose practice makes it easier. Edited January 14, 2010 by kingys what kingys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
