Re: How do you tie monofiliment line to 10 color lead filled line
O.K. now that's a problem I've never experiencd. I just use 50' of good old orange braided backer line and tie the lead core to that with an albright knot. As for swivels running through the guides, humm, I don't think I want to do that with any of my rods. I'm running G-Loomis Medium Fast S1086's with Shimano Calcutta 400B's right now but I'm changing to the equivelant EDGE rods next season. I might run the TE400's instead of the B's also. I really don't like the idea of running swivels through the guides. I've been using the method described by JLawsen for several years and have landed some big fish with it. Mark, I'm sure your method works well for you and I may even try your knot someday but the thing about swivels running through guides aint gonna happen.
