There were a few things we felt that could be improved upon in the design of these essential accessories.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOne consideration for those selecting threading needles, manufacturers of fluorocarbon and monofilament lines do not have a standard diameter for any given line test. So, in the case of threading needles, an 80 lb. needle may not accommodate all 80 lb. test lines, it might be too snug a fit for some lines and too large for others. There can be variance of diameter between manufacturers and even between batches of lines of the same test. \u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt’s best to own a few needles\u003c\/b\u003e, since leader diameters are not consistent or standardized. Going back to that 80# leader, best to have 60\/80 and 100# needles in your kit even if that’s the only test you’ll be working with. That’s one reason why our kits are priced aggressively, we encourage folks to have several needles for use with their lines. Even if an angler only wishes to work with one particular test for inline rigging, it’s best to have two or more threading needles just to accommodate different diameters of lines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"left\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA second point to make for folks getting into inline rigging, making wind-ons or even assist hooks, while \u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ea loop needle can do many things but it’s best used for simply opening up braid\u003c\/b\u003e which may be hard to work with for a certain size leader or needle diameter. \u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor most all needs, whether doing a splice, making a loop or connecting solid to hollow lines, the latch needle is the preferred tool.\u003c\/b\u003e The only thing to remember about working with a latch needle is to only go in ONE direction. If you try to reverse or pull the needle backwards the latch will protrude through your braid and get stuck! Once stuck you will need to cut the braid and then extract the needle. If you try to force things you won’t get far and you’ll probably break your needle. The hook on the latch works just like the barb on a hook. So, keep moving the latch needle forward, never back up.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":41492879081536,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":41492879114304,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large","offer_id":41492879147072,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/5120\/8768\/files\/toro-tamer-latch-needle.jpg?v=1794368019","url":"https:\/\/reelsight.store\/products\/toro-tamer-inline-reverse-latch-needles","provider":"ReelSight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
