The
difference detween the Perfectionist Crab Rings and the store bought
ones and why they work better
On the
store bought rings the net is made out of cotton. The white cotton net
rips and rots easily. Mine are made out of black tarred nylon.
The
rings themselves are made out of thin wire. They are to light and bend
to easily. Mine are made out of 9 gauge tension wire.
The main
reason the store bought rings don't work properly is because the the
top ring can cross over into the bottom ring when it hits
it's resting place.
Now you
have a 50/50 chance of the crab being either in the bottom half of the
ring or on the outside of the top and bottom
ring.
If it's
on this half the crab is not in the ring, he's on the outside. When you
pull your main line the crab is gone.
It took
a lot of different net sizes to come up with the right one so this
doesn't happen.
You've got to have the right
amount of rows, columns and the right mesh size for all of this to fall
into place.
You also got to have the
right diameter rings for this to work.
There's
a lot of other different things on the ring setup that make them
better. Too many to go into detail.
