Making a joint on Giant pikie..

[Rockfish9]

now you should have a nice neat loop, that is tight and durable, I then use a nose gromet in the tail section and install a secon piece of wire and finish my tail wrap as I normaly would..

This practice takes time and takes a little getting used too, but the end result IMHO is worth the trouble...

Good luck

Nice tutorial.I have done it in a similar fashion.Just to try it that way..I think Capesams was the one to walk us thru it a few yrs ago.Other times I just do a small tail rap on the but end of the front section.I think both methods work fine.
