Good for floatline?

  • Thanx for the pics. Yeah, it's pretty easy.
    You could make 3 100' float lines for about 15-18 bucks a piece with clip, swivel etc. Great $$$.

  • How do you attach terminal gear (safely) to it?

    I use a SS quick link. It's basically an open link with threading that closes by turning a nut. You can close it almost permanently by applying force with pliers or just leave it hand tight for quick disconnect. IMO it is the most secure connection.

  • So where do I order this floatline? I'm gonna try to get that 600' spool. Making a large batch of floatlines.


    I see the memphis-rope page, but is that the best place?


    Looking to get the foam filled line.

    What happened to the tube? <img src= " class="smiley" srcset="https://spearfishing.world/forum/images/smilies/emojione/1f606@2x.png 2x" height="23" width="23" loading="eager" data-tooltip="biggrin" aria-label="biggrin">

    I'm keeping the tube, but I have "friends" who know even less than I do! They'll need floatlines. Might as well buy in bulk. I wanna work on my splicing anyway. I'll probably sell any extras at cost.

  • Bump for updates. Any of those that have done this, input very welcome
    My gear needs revamping and this seems like a decent way to save a few$$. If done correctly seems to be as stron as any.
    Thanks for any further info

  • I've been through a few float lines, my past float lines have twist and tangled. I now use 5mm SKI ROPE and double splice either end, I have never looked back :):)
