Owner Tear Drop Split Rings are innovative terminal tackle from Owner Hooks, a trusted Japanese brand known for precision-engineered fishing gear. These unique teardrop-shaped split rings are specifically designed to enhance the performance of hard baits and plugs by maximizing lure action and preventing line slippage. The asymmetrical shapefeaturing a wide radius on one end and a narrow radius on the otherallows the lure to swim freely without interference, while keeping the knot securely positioned away from the ring’s opening. Made from high-strength stainless steel with a durable black chrome finish for superior corrosion resistance, they’re suitable for both freshwater and saltwater applications.

Key Features:

• Enhanced Lure Action: Wide end promotes natural bait movement; narrow end secures connections and reduces tangles.
• Anti-Slip Design: Minimizes knot sliding into the split, ensuring reliable hookups during strikes.
• Premium Build: Forged for strength and longevity; rated for heavy loads without bending under pressure.
• Versatile Use: Ideal for attaching hooks, trebles, or swivels to crankbaits, jerkbaits, and topwater lures; also great for line-to-lure ties.

Available Sizes and Specs:

These rings are a favorite among serious anglers for upgrading stock hardware on lures. Note: Some users report easier bending with pliers on smaller sizes, so use quality tools for installation. Don’t use split ring pliers that are too large for the ring, Texas Tackle makes several different pliers.
