Thanks for the replys. I think I'm gonna beef up the sabiki rig. Worse case scenario would be it breaking off on a BSB or other fish. I've seen a pic of a sabiki wrapped halibut. Last thing we need is a ban on sabiki's.

BTW- Abu6000 was the old sabiki reel, Friggin handle fell off. Finding parts ain't easy. Andy, think you have one of those...watch out.

speaking of torpedo weights... I found these at Fred Hall.. the candy catchers booth had them... Although, they were giving them away with a squid jig sabiki, I convinced them to sell a couple to me seperate, as I already had a couple of their sabiki's... A couple months ago, I got taps on my sabiki that didn't stick, I thought maybe they were squirts...?

Couldn't find these on their website, I am sure an email might get them to sell them.

As you can see they are 4oz, the same as a regular torpedo weight... I painted them white, as they come in silver...
