Planning to order some supplies to start tying assist hooks for salmon, ling and hali rigs. Found a super informative post from @TheBigGuy (https://sportfishingbc.com/threads/tested-testng-new-tackle.64624/post-819741), though it is from 2017 so checking to see if folks can suggest current components/suppliers. I'm fine with ordering from Ebay and waiting on shipping if required, though also glad to support Canadian companies if there is a reasonable supplier. Would rather do it right the first time around then trial different components.
1) I haven't found any kevlar or technora at the local suppliers, though have had someone suggest 200lb tuna cord (Ashaway brand with crimps, likely fine for hali) or the Attwood micro cord (125lb, 1.18mm diameter, likely ok for salmon). Have people used either of these successfully?
2) Current brand and source for solid rings? Based on TheBigGuys prior post i'll want 300-400lb rated rings.
Thanks!
