Krok swivels

Has anyone heard of a Spro 330 failing?

Kroks ...all the time spent building a lure and try and save pennies on the part that attaches the hook to it ? not me ..

[Woodbuster]

Never tried Krocs. Always used Spro. Is there a major diff?

[ThrowingTimber]

I agree %100... I dont care if the paint falls off, even if the damn plug gets spintered into little peices, I can make another just like it... as long as the hardware doesnt fail...

 

The majority of my plugs are fished on wire, the unforging nature of that type of fishing alone is enough for me to "go the distance" and use the best possible hardware...

I was just curious about size.....

 

but FWIW in 100 pks Spro is about $8 and Krok is $12.... small margin for 50-100 plugs.

Come on truthfully when was the last time you guys lost "A fish of a lifetime" because the body swivel failed? Was it a Rossco? or a spro? I doubt it was either type.

If it did fail I would put it on your inexperience in landing big fish rather than the equipment.

Face it your line, drag, rod, guide or snap will fail before a belly swivel.

You have more chance of losing a big fish by drivers error than a a new swivel coming apart.

A Krock is just another piece of unneeded bling that is being added to plugs. It isn't for the fish, it's there for the fisherman.

Thats the point....Nothing big ever came from the left coast..

 

I have five stripers of a lifetime, How many do you have Sean? All were shore caught as boat fish don't count.

Again OVERKILL

I was waiting to hear a broken spro story - I've caught bluefin tuna to around 120 lbs on 330 Spros - and strike was set around 3/4 drag on a shimano 30w. If you broke one on a Striper I'd hate to see that fishes lip
