    Coiled Sighter Materials

    Aaron - loved the video. The solid color coiled leader used Andes material, but I couldn't catch the name of the manuafactuer of the two tone material used for the colied sighters - please, what is it, what diameter, and any clue as to where to find it in NE NJ? Ramsey? Thanks.

    It's sold at some normal tackle shops. I got mine though on aka magnet from a place in Old Saybrook CT. I think that it's River's End tackle if I remember it right. The best sizes were .014" and .016". I am sure that area shops can order it for you.

    But what is it called? Who is the manufacturer? Can't order or ask for it if I don't know what to call it. Thanks.

    Peter here is the info. It's the .35 mm bi color strik indicator by Jan Siman. (This is for the coil indicator) Honestly You can use size 14 yelllow Stren which works fine too.

    Aaron - you mentioned at the show in Paramus that Cortland is working on a leader product - do you know when that will hit the market?
    Why do you have your arm around that pretty woman? Well she has her hand around my rod. You tell me who's getting fresh.

    Fredrick,

    You boil the coil for 5 minutes and then freeze it overnight. No worries about the pen.
