E-chip

I used one at Sekiu during the past month. Didn't keep written records, but it outfished the green hot spot almost 3 to 1 on my boat.

Glad to hear about the upgrades the company is making. Personally, I'd like a corkscrew swivel on the back end. Makes switching leaders easier.

Also, for what it's worth, I went to 18" 50# test leaders with a 6/0 Siwash and the hoochie/twinkle skirt just brushing the bend of the hook for the hoochies behind the flasher or dodger. It is my impression that my hook-up rates went way up compared to previous trips. I think it is because the fish has to decide to hit the lure or not. It can't peck at it or study it like they might when using the longer leaders (28" plus). On my last trip, I had 3 hits that pulled out of the clip and didn't stick. Everything else came to the boat for observation.
