Default Where to get RSKs w/out leader/hook

I heard that you can get Rotary Salmon Killers or something like them without paying $3-$4 for them pre-tied. Does anyone know where you can get them cheaper, possibly without the leader and hook? I have heard that you have to get them in bulk so if anyone has some to sell I would buy them. Thanks for the help.

Englunds in Newport. ~$1 each, bags of 100. If you get clear with the chartreuse fin, I'll split a bag with you.

Pilar uses them like salt in a brine factory. The only place I can currently find them is at Englunds. You can oreder by phone. They may not have a whole bag on hand...I know from experience!

As of Friday, they (Englund's in Newport) had a whole bag (of that color) on the shelf.
As I was busy soaking-up the great city of Newprot and all it had to offer on Friday, I of course had to stop by Englunds and make a deposit $$$.
I found that the un-rigged RSK's are much more user friendly when you take off all your clothes and roll around in them. Those hooks are pointy!
I think that's how the BeeGee's hit those high notes maybe.
Pilar, ifin' you're looking to split your half of the bag, I'll gladly pick up 25 from ya. I sure like those little jobbers.

I have picked them up at Tackle time in Warrenton. Last time was $1.50. I would split a bag if possible. Sure would like to mix the colors though. I seem to have better luck with different colors depending on the conditions. Is it possible to buy them bulk in a couple of colors?

I too would be interested in splitting a bag with someone or 4 ways even better. Okay the more splits the better.

Sunday leaving town Englunds was closed so I stopped at Harry's. $1.20 each as singles and he had 4 colors. More importantly I got the loader for $13.

Skein had one and I liked it. When I get my boat set up, one will be screwed to the lid on the bait holder.

what about the new RSK's that have the E-chip in them and replacable fins? Anyone tried those up here? You don't need the loader with those, and no pinched fingers either.

Loaders are an inpossible price for what you get but once you try them you think they are worth most any price! All I use are the green fin clears...but then I haven't felt the need for anything else yet :smile:

I believe I saw them at Bob's in Longview when I stopped in there after smelt dipping. They were sold in pkg of 3, but don't remember the price.

I'd be in for half a bag as well! If someone is going to order, let me know.
Or lets get a solid count and I'll do the ordering.

Bluewater?
Pilar - 50
Smily - 25
Crabby - 50
Me - 50

Anyone else?

Dave - How about I start another thread and let everybody know that we are ordering mass quantities so they can get a shot at it?

we are using them to make herring dance. What eats them is a smorgasboard. Mostly salmon but halibut too at the pile and a ling won't pass them up.

Tuna? Maybe...on the slide. Don't think anybody has tried it...........yet.

Bug flicker- Those are all that I used last season and never had a problem with them. Where did they break in your experience? It is something that I will definately watch out for now that I know. Thanks a lot for the info. Guess it is a good thing I have a bunch of the old ones still. Thanks again Trigger out

Crabbait- What do you cast in the slide? I have used pretty much everything, and have come to the conclusion that the Fish Trap is the best to get those tuna to stay up for a little while. Keeps the weight of a live bait tank out of the boat as well. Just a little thought. Trigger

I would like 25 as well so that would make an even 200. Just tell me where and when I need to pick them up. How long does it take to get them? I don't need them for a few weeks but I want to make sure that I can get them.

Do it Steve!
Let's get this going. I only have about 20 now and can see myself burning through a few more before summers ends.
