Flipper 56 trapper Joined: Jan 2019 Northern IN USA	Originally Posted by HayDay Since these are one and done temp uses anyway, I can think of several options. A rubber band, cut in half, then double looped overhand knot, pull the ends tight? A drop of marine epoxy? A drop of silicone caulk? Wet the cable and apply a drop of gorilla glue......wet so if foams up. A dab of great stuff? A bigger fix would be to replace the universal twist on wire whammy. I've got a couple dozen of those that will not twist on to any wire I've tried. Not #9, not #12. It's as if they repel them. If forced to use one today, I'd hit it with a couple wraps of electrical tape. The electrical tape is a good idea, so is a drop of epoxy. No where in your rules does it say it has to be indestructible, it just says a stop. So what if it gets chewed off or trashed after the catch? The cable will be destroyed after a catch.

Also if you are making sets for coyote I highly recommend the barrel swivels And from my experience they also make it easier to hang the loop for fox also Last edited by w side rd 151; 01/14/25 08:48 AM.
