  • Shrink tube

    Alright everyone.

    I need some shrink tube for the tip tornado sport I got at the weekend. Can anyone point me at the best stuff and what size I need?

    Cheers
    All the gear, no idea.

    Get some of the Japanese stuff from Rutherfords, best stuff around IMHO.

        Agree with Alan, Jap Shrink Rubber is the best and its what Century use. Think Rutherfords is the only shop to stock it.

            Rutherfords do sell it think it's 14.50 but think it's only a extra 3-4 quid for him to put it on and it only takes 5-10 min
            Size codling since sept 2013 = 46. Best so far = 5lb4oz

                    Hello,
                    Like the lads have said the Japanese stuff is the best......but more expensive.

                    I know that Terry has some in Reelsports at South Shields, also Andy has it at Rutherfords in Roker avenue.

                    Regards Ian

                      Dont see how Rutherfords charging 3 or 4 Quid to put the Shrink on is out of order. They are not in business to do work for nothing, no way to help pay the Rent etc.

                        Mister shrink on eBay sell excellent x wrap shrink tube in various colours £9.99 free postage for 1.4 meters
                        I am a fisherman !
                        It is not merely something that I do
                        It is who I am !
                        Fishing is not simply my escape.
                        It is where I am supposed to be.
                        It is not a place that I go
                        But a lifelong journey that I am taking
                        It is a passage that was shown to me and that I will continue to show others.
                        When you understand all of this you will then know me .
                        And we will fish together

                              Another vote from me for Mistershrink. I've used them a few times and had excellent service.
