  1. Ok im sold i love braid on a light rod the feedback is amazing but i see your point i do use braided hooklinks ive not noticed any damage to fish through it but i see your point it could be a source of damage in the right/wrong circumstances foul hooking etc i will certainly consider my use of braid in future as for leadcore i still stand by my opinion particularly long leaders

  2. Oooowha dont get the hump its a rig essential in some situations but you have to agree to use it every time we go out it takes away the need to think about our rig presentation and taking out the need to think is taking the essence of carp fishing our area of sport is heavily based around the rig we use and this is and should be evolving all the time

  3. Surly mono and braid under tension can be just as damaging to mr fish if it comes into contact it is unrealistic to think our catching of a fish leaves no damage whatsoever we just have to limit our own handling of the fish to my mind, I've used leadcore but don't like it but I think the issue with it is more a case of two points. 1.if snapped off it neutralises the effect of the lead making it more difficult for a fish to free itself by shaking against the lead

    2. Some fishery owners are starting to mither about how lines degrade when left in the lake and it's fair to say leadcore would be a long old time for a potentially lethal snag to hang in the water.

     

    Please don't shout at me these are my own interpretations of my reading so if I'm wrong or have mis understood then sorry in advance
