before most of my surf fishing trips, i start out by stopping by my local shop. while their i do the usual story swapping, purchasing, and such.
now here is my question: do you / would you purchase pre- tied rigs? by this, i am speaking of things like leaders, teasers, and bait rigs. i have been noticing a lot latey, of shops that have these items tied by the employees of the shop. would your purchase be influenced if the components were top quality? ie, fluorocarbon, ball bearing swivels, circle hooks, etc... i am just asking, because i spend some of my non-fishing time tieing these rigs for my own use, and was wondering if i was waisting my time.
also, what about teasers? do you make your own, or purchase them?
