Does anyone know of a websight that shows how to braid dock line? I've got a roll of it & I want to braid the loops in the ends. I'm wicked bored, It's either that or practice casting in my back yard. The neighbors think I'm a nut. So true! Thanks

Might want to try PMing Pasangas, he may know how. I'm sure there are books out there, if I remember correctly you need some tools to splice Sampson Braid lines.

Here is a link to a downloadable (PDF) instruction on splicing.

If your splicing double braid and never done it before read the entire directions first and then follow them EXACTLY.

Have fun....hehehehe

Thanks for the help. I'm gonna try it. Nothing else to do. I may make a noose and hang myself if I don't go fishing soon.
