Tungsten is a dense and heavy metal in direct contact with your line. Damage to a weight can happen during packaging, shipping, or just dropping on the floor in your garage. A piece of sharp metal sliding up and down your line spells guaranteed break-offs, which is why Davy Hite tests every single tungsten weight for damage before putting them in his boat – here’s how.
Luke Stoner is a former college fisherman who cut his bass fishing teeth at golf course ponds, strip mines, and horsepower restricted lakes in central Illinois before moving to northeast Oklahoma to work for Dynamic Sponsorships in 2015.
He spent a summer interning for Terry Brown back in his college days and proved he was truly Wired2Fish. Stoner is an avid angler himself, but has a passion for writing articles and producing other digital content to help you catch more fish.
While his competitive fishing days have slowed down a bit, he still jumps in local jackpot tournaments anytime he is able. His day job allows direct access to professional bass anglers and he enjoys mining different tips, techniques, storylines and trade secrets from them to package up for Wired2Fish readers.
