I'm new to pike and musky fishing. I ordered Scientific Anglers Predator leader from Orvis so I wouldn't have to tie my own. The leader came with small sleeves (see pic) with this description: "Flies attach easily with heavy-duty black single-barrel sleeves." There was no instruction on how to "easily" attach the flies. I assume some crimping is involved? I Googled it and couldn't find anything except crimping that involves a special tool. Is that what I need? I have no idea. I then sent Scientific Anglers an email request for instruction. No response. I then chatted with Orvis online. The rep was very nice and said he would look into it and send information. All he could find was general stuff. Does anybody know how to use these barrel sleeves to attach a fly or snap? Thanks ahead of time!
