knots

Well, I never want be be tying Leaders & rigs & such between May & Dec. when the game is on!... So I'm always using 1- 2 yr. old Leader/ snaps/ knots-- again: no knot failures yet in a LONG time! Only down- side is that my friends know my supply habits... & hit me up for Leaders like many do for Marlboros!


I tie 75- 150 leaders of all types (some w/ just plain snap... some swivel & Eel- hook... some w/ teaser & snap combos., etc.) every Winter... Just to ensure I'm not wasting time tying "in- season..."


BD, I've spent my surfcasting career avoiding/ neglecting the braid revolution so far... & I'm not changing now!

COOL, Le Counts!

I missed your point earlier, you don't tie to braid
because you don't WANT to tie to braid, now I get it .

Different strokes for different folks, and I can't say that I'm completely sold, but i do like the distance and the no memory loss. On yer bigger test lines it seems to be easier to spool as well. For me the jury's still out, but I do like it so far........

Here is a cool website that shows how to tie all of the knots...

I just picked the dropper loop, but you can choose from all of the knots on the left.
