 New member's introduction I am a new member and do most of my shore fishing at Sandwich Bay. I also do boat fishing on a mate's boat. I am beginning to tie my own rigs and wonder what tool you use to tighten crimps onto the line. I imagine that ordinary pliers damage the line. Any help would be much appreciated.      |

| Re: New member's introduction Welcome to the fishing forum  Pop down a diy shop and find some crimps that suit your size crimps i.e 5mm ect should only cost £5 - £9.00 On the crimping plies their should be ratings i.e 5mm 8mm Hope that make sense as reading it back it does not  __________________ Richard|Sea Fishing |Carp Fishing| Spud Gun | Zander fishing | Fishing Reports | Hunting Reports |
