I've got to practice that way brice, Just did it twice and once ended
up with fishing line in the nose. must be blind or something. the
newer Line Jim was refering to is a pain in the backside as it is
like light thread. However I am trying to tie some 30 pound Triline
test to a couple of swivels which is what I use for river catfish.
that line is much thicker or it seems that way. for plain old bass
or trut I just use the pretied angler hook and pre looped hookups
and no swivel. and of course healthy night crawlers . Lee

"what's the first thing you say to yourself?"
"What's for breakfast?" said Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?"
"I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet.
Pooh nodded thoughtfully. "It's the same thing," he said.
