Default Re: Break Away Sinker Loops?

Rich, just tie an overhand knot in the loop for the sinker, it will weaken the line enough to break off the sinker when you get hung. Dropper loops are the weakest knots you could use. Some people use them all the time, not me. I would hate to lose a big fish because of knot failure.
