Was thinking is it safe or possible to use leadcore on a method rig, i had a passing though the other day and it got me thinking if its not a safe rig then fair enough but if it is then how would it be best done

What are different specs of hooksused for as in long shank wide gape etc and what hook sizes should i be using for different baits?

ok great i didnt know i could use that knot on a spliced leadcore i do now, i guess thats the thing when your new to something sometimes i dont try new things because its costly to the fish if it goes wrong

i dont know why it is but the polmar not never looks like it does in the pictures when i do it ..so i dont do it its a problem i need to address i think:D

ok thanks i will give it a try

how do i attach it to my mainline with a grinner knot i have a loop at each end

i have my spliced leadcore so i have a nice loop now which is the best not to attach it to my mainline

So a splice really isnt a not a such is it thats show interpreted the instructions in the esp leadcore pack so if it isnt notted what makes it hold ?

got a couple of these the other day just to see how there made really before doing my own version ,now i have a loop at each end one for a swivel one end and rig the other how best is it to attach the swivel and i use nash quick change rotoclips on my rigs now i can see there is an obvious well just clip it on theory but will the leadcore break under the strain or can anyone give me a better way of doing this as i really dont want to get it wrong for obvious reasons... Bob:confused:

many thanks all is clear now

Being reasonably new to all this how do i use back leads and when are they best used
