Splice Wire Diver Line?

[dan agnello]

Lost a lot of wire yesterday to tangles. Was thinking about splicing on some more wire using Albright or modified Albright knot and cover with small piece of shrink tubing.

My wire divers have about 10’ of braid on the end so I can break the rods down. I used the double Uni knot with no problem.

Similarly, my wire divers have 6' of 30lb mono to the penny just short of the business end so I can break them down without getting curlies.  I decided to go with mono for the shock absorbing bonus against the wire.  Longer amounts of mono will reduce the depth the wire diver can get to - I verified it so keep it short.
