FAQs
What is the purpose of Westlake Ledger Stops?
They are used to fix the position of bomb or feeder links on your mainline, ensuring your rig stays in a specific spot.
How many ledger stops are in a pack?
Each pack contains 25 ledger stops.
Are these stops suitable for all types of fishing?
No, they are specifically designed for bomb and feeder fishing applications.
Can these stops damage my fishing line?
The design is intended to be line-friendly and minimize abrasion, but always check your line for wear after use, especially after long sessions or fighting strong fish.
What color are the Westlake Ledger Stops?
They are a Light Brown color.
How do I attach them to my line?
Slide the inner part onto the line, position it, and then insert the stop plug to hold it in place.
Are they easy to remove or reposition?
Yes, they can be easily slid along the line and repositioned by removing and reinserting the stop plug.
Troubleshooting
Ledger stop slips on the line.
Ensure the stop plug is fully and securely inserted into the inner tube. Check that the ledger stop size is appropriate for your line diameter; a stop that is too large may not grip effectively.
Difficulty sliding the stop onto the line.
Check for any debris inside the inner tube of the stop. Ensure your line is not frayed at the point of insertion. A tiny amount of silicone lubricant can sometimes help, but use sparingly.
Stop plug becomes loose or falls out.
Replace the stop plug if it appears damaged or worn. Ensure it is pushed in completely. If using very light lines, consider a slightly smaller stop or a more secure alternative if this becomes a recurring issue.
