They are what salmon fisherman use when fishing fast flowing shallow rivers with lots of rocks & sharp stones etc , matt finished and "slippy" . I dont use leaders myself , no need , but 60lb fluorocarbon ? Yeah mate imo jobs a good un AND virtually invisible . Some may disagree but certainley something for you to consider . The internets a big place

Im not getting involved with anything braid Have you considered a fluorocarbon or even a salmon/trout nylon polyleader ?

The naked choc eh ? Sounds like a really HOT bedtime drink

KD = kenny Dorsett i believe . Still looks like half a KK to me though . It does work with the right hookbait . Still loving uncle Danny's elSTOWS

I must admit i thought tom dove came up with the name ( naked ) but even i was using paternosters with mainline 35 years ago . I just never realised it
-
Actually i got the idea after using the 175's , fly hooks being strong but cheap and all that . Must be honest though and say i've never used 'em ?
-
Already got some Nick Kamasan , i think 160's ??? Pennies

I cant remember if i mentioned it on this thread or another one but Carp-r-us have been producing a crank hook for ages and they do look very similar .

Me too . If it doesnt come back out first time , out come the sidecutters.

Dont suppose you have a piccie ? out of curiosity of course cos people do use the helicopter set up even when they dont really need to , purely for its anti-tangle properties ?

Yeh mate sounds wrong to me . Only thing i can think of is your hooklnk is too long . Let me have a look for a pic

Jon , how was your hooklenngth wrapping around the leader ?The very nature of the helicopter set up ( also known as the rotary ) dictates that it canNot happen ie its rotary ? In my experience the only rigs ( apart from the choddy ) used on heli set ups are basic bottom bait rigs ? I have of course set myself up to be shot down in flames having said that

Well how about this . One of the lakes on the complex where i fish has had a fish kill . At least 16 20lb+ fish have gone belly up . Its very heavily weeded , has now had a load of lime slung in and there are at least 2 windmill type aerators installed ?
