[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 372950, member: 330"] If pike are common/likely I go "direct" tie to home rolled wire or clip to wire to clip for cranks. Sounds like a lot a shit but not IMHO. I do the one clip deal on bait casting when the lure and attachment should not be an issue to committed quarry of appropriate size. The "two clip deal" is reserved for spin tackle. This "new" braid allows for extreme spool preservation like a fly reel. I remember precisely when it wasn't perfectly round and was hit or miss on spinning tackle. It's also good to have dedicated "bait rods" and "plastic rods" incorporating a bbl swivel. On a dedicated bait rod the slip weight SHOULD be above the swivel or benefit of free line is lost. Sometimes "things" happen and improvasation/adapting is necessary. This shit can be like a Jenga Puzzle and becomes easier when motivated to preserve spool depth. Just cut back the leader to the swivel: The "first" leader should be 15% of rod length?... As clipping occurs and casting becomes more "normal" you figure out the comfortable amount of "tip distance".

That is all, [/QUOTE]
