what did you put over the fishing line?


Cast it, reel it, jerk it.

Super glue... just on the ends where I start it and where I finish wrapping the line.

Heck of a good idea!


What has happed to you does not define who you are-

HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!

Cool! When I get bored I get 'creative' and usually screw something up.

How does that leader setup work for you? Definitely heavy duty.

I use 80# Ande mono for the leader line... the clips are 2 different sizes, not sure what number. And the beads I found in the arts n craft section at Wally World. Works real good so far. The leader seems over kill but makes it easy to grab and pull in pretty good.
