Only have that problem when I use larger than 15 # leader on A rod that has micro guides. I'll show you how I do it sometime so the knot stays slim

Yeah uni to uni but I do the wraps a lilduffrent

Why would you not want to use a swivel? at $15 bucks a spool I dont want line twists and knots I have to cut out.

I have used power pro and suffix.They are both great.I decided on suffix,20-6.I use a 12-18 inch floro leader behind a 20lb spro barrel swivel,with a rosco, size 52 stainless snap to change lures fast.I have never had this snap open on a trout.If you try to roll in a big red with a super tight drag they will straighten it out...

I have used a blood not and do not like the way it feels running thru the guides Good Fishin !!!

LOL 2 years? it sounds like u got your money's worth out of that spool :*****:
only way i can get line to last 2 years is to put it in the closet for 1 year and 9 months.

ME? I almost never use braid inshore saltwater. I just don't feel i need it.. MY DRAG WORKS CORRECTLY
the only time I use swivels is on a carolina rig and I personally dislike swivels because they create the need for an extra knot, which means another weak point in my line :shaking: ..
For braid to mono/fluoro i just use a uni-uni splice knot, it has yet to fail me.

Give me 50# power pro on my 7'11" heavy crucial in lacassine and it don't matter if it's 2lbs or 22lbs.... it's comin MY WAY! :smokin:
