Tronixpro Rubber Stops – Oval – Luminous

Tronixpro Rubber Stops – Oval | Luminous | The Streamlined Night-Fishing Attractor

When fishing in deep water or after the sun goes down, visibility and aerodynamics are your best friends. The Tronixpro Rubber Stops (Oval) in Luminous, available at Gerry’s Fishing, are a dual-purpose essential. Their tapered “oval” shape is designed to be more aerodynamic than the column version, reducing tangles and cutting through the air during a long-range power cast.

The Luminous version provides that vital “glow-in-the-dark” strike point next to your bait. Whether you are using them as bait stops to keep soft baits in place or as a non-damaging alternative to metal crimps for adjustable snoods, these stops provide a secure hold while acting as a beacon for inquisitive predators like Whiting, Cod, and Flatfish.

Technical Specifications

Why Use Luminous Oval Rubber Stops?

• Aerodynamic Distance: The tapered shape is less likely to catch on weed or debris and glides through the air more efficiently during a long-range cast.

• High-Visibility Attraction: Ideal for night fishing or coloured water. A quick blast with a headlamp or UV torch makes these stops glow brightly, drawing fish toward your hook.

   

• Non-Damaging Snood Traps: Use a pair to “trap” a swivel on your rig body. Unlike crimps, these won’t pinch or weaken your line, allowing you to slide your snoods up or down to find the fish.

• Glow-in-the-Dark Bait Stops: Slide one down to the eye of your hook to keep soft baits (like lugworm or peeler crab) from sliding up the line while acting as a glowing strike point.

Gerry’s Pro Tip

“The Oval Luminous stops are the ‘secret weapon’ for ‘Scratching Rigs’ at night. Because they are more streamlined than the column stops, they offer less resistance in the tide, which helps keep your light snoods from ‘spinning’ and tangling. To get the brightest glow, ‘charge’ them for 10 seconds with a UV torch just before you cast. They act like a neon sign for fish in the dark Atlantic surf!”

Frequently Asked Questions

How many stops come in a pack?

Each pack includes 20 high-quality Luminous Oval Stops, pre-loaded onto wire loops for an effortless transition onto your rig body or hook length.

Do they glow for a long time?

Tronixpro uses a high-quality luminous pigment. While they will glow naturally in low light, a quick charge with a bright light source will give them a vibrant glow that lasts through most of a standard 20-minute soak.

What is the benefit of the Oval shape over the Column?

The Oval shape is more ‘hydrodynamic.’ In fast-moving tides, it is less likely to cause the line to vibrate and is significantly less likely to pick up floating weed or debris than a square-edged column stop.

Are they strong enough for power casting?

Absolutely. While they aren’t meant to take the weight of a lead, when ‘bunched’ in groups of two or three, they provide incredible grip for holding your hook lengths in place against the force of a 6oz cast
