That was a thorough description. I kept thinking that it was like building a light saber for walleye fishing.

Yeah, thanks for the lesson!  Is Bob Probst still around?  I fished some of the early walleye tournaments and him and Mike McClelland were kind of  together.   McClelland taught us the shoreline "stuff".

I picked up some fluorocarbon filament, 8lbs to go with the d-shape clevises, beads, and #5 colorado blades. It's time to start putting these together. I still need a lindy slip weight thing...

You could save a few bucks and have different slip weight if you want to go with a steelhead duck and chuck set-up?

The first link has a pic with a bead and snap swivel so you can change weight sizes.

The second link to slinky slip weight source.

Quick snap barrel swivel examples? I can't remember what Wallee13 called them but them came in a blister pack. I can't seem to find anything analogous at this end (Twin Cities).

I was a little confused when you called them "Quick snap barrel swivels" because I've never seen anything like that?

When I saw the pic of Lindy Swivel clip I thought that must be what you wanted for a Lindy rig set-up.

I buy most of my tackle from discount outlets on-line anymore. The price can't be beaten and if you catch a close-out sale it's even better.

Yes, I couldn't remember what they were called and the quick snaps seemed to come closest. I didn't remember to jot down the name of those swivels at Copia while wallee13 was setting up the various lindy configurations  he was putting together.

I need to take more copious notes next time! Thanks again for the link. I just ordered up a couple of packs. These season of walleye fishing is looking up!
