Quick take
A kit of terminal tackle components including a Coastlock snap swivel and brass connectors for rigging.
The Scotty 1153 Terminal Kit bundles the small parts for terminating a downrigger cable: a Coastlock snap with swivel, a soft stop bumper, a stainless steel thimble and brass connector sleeves. It suits trolling anglers who need to rig or re-rig the cable end that holds the downrigger ball. It is made in Canada and weighs next to nothing in a tackle box.
Best for
- Setting up trolling rigs and leader systems
- Anglers who tie their own terminal tackle
- Quick line-connection applications
Skip if
- You need only individual snaps or swivels; buy bulk instead
- You prefer pre-tied terminal rigs
Strengths
- Coastlock snap allows one-handed snap operation on the water
- Stainless steel thimble resists corrosion in saltwater
- Mixed components give you options for different rigging needs
Trade-offs
- Kit size may not match your specific needs; some pieces unused
- Brass connectors will tarnish with use; stainless steel is better for salt
- Thimble and bumper have limited use in most common rigs
Fishing fit
- Water
- Freshwater
- Saltwater
