Tronixpro Rubber Stops – Column – Clear

Tronixpro Rubber Stops – Column | Clear | The Stealthy Rig Component

In clear water or when targeting easily spooked species, the smallest details can determine your success. The Tronixpro Rubber Stops (Column) in Clear, available at Gerry’s Fishing, are the ultimate stealth component for your rig-building kit. These high-grip, transparent rubber cylinders allow you to secure your components without adding unnecessary visual bulk or “scare factors” to your presentation.

Designed as a non-damaging alternative to metal crimps, these Clear stops are virtually invisible once submerged. Whether you are fishing for wary Plaice in crystal-clear summer waters or Bass in shallow estuaries, these stops provide a firm, adjustable hold on your line without compromising the natural look of your bait.

Technical Specifications

Why Use Clear Column Rubber Stops?

• Maximum Stealth: Ideal for finesse fishing and “scratching” where brightly colored components might deter shy-biting fish.

• Non-Damaging Snood Traps: Use them to trap a swivel on your rig body. Unlike crimps, these can be moved up and down to adjust your fishing depth without “nicking” or weakening the line.

• Invisible Bait Stops: Slide a single stop down to the hook eye to keep delicate baits like maddies or small pieces of squid in place without adding a bulky visual profile.

   

• Bead Positioning: Perfect for keeping small clear or neutral-colored beads pinned to your hook length, maintaining a sleek, professional presentation.

   

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“When using the Clear Column stops, they are particularly effective on Fluorocarbon hook lengths. Because Fluorocarbon has a similar refractive index to water, using these transparent stops ensures the entire snood remains almost invisible to the fish. To ensure they stay put during a big cast, I recommend using two stops back-to-back. This ‘double-lock’ provides incredible grip even on the slickest of lines!”

Frequently Asked Questions

How many stops come in a pack?

Each pack contains 20 high-quality clear rubber stops, conveniently loaded onto wire loops for quick and easy transfer to your rig body or snood.

Will the clear rubber turn yellow over time?

Tronixpro uses high-grade UV-resistant rubber, meaning these stops will stay clear and transparent for much longer than cheaper alternatives, even after exposure to salt and sun.

Can I use these for ‘sliding’ rigs?

Absolutely. That is their primary strength. If the fish move from the bottom to mid-water, you can simply slide your snood traps up the rig body. It’s a much more efficient way to fish than constantly tying new rigs.

Are these suitable for heavy-duty beach casting?

While they are excellent for most shore applications, if you are casting 6oz+ leads with very heavy baits, we recommend bunching three stops together to ensure they don’t slide under the initial force of the cast.
