Hey guys,

 

Im using a hinge rig, helicopter style...Im using 30lb Fluoro, and the beads are sliding very easily even gravity slides them down.

 

What can I do ?

Have you tried piercing the beads sideways and pulling the line through.

NOT to be attemted if using thick leaders or leadcore...

Try this on naked heli rigs:

 

For the top put a 4mm Korda tapered bead on your mainline first with the big hole facing your rig, use a small Korda hooklength sinker next and slide it into position, then slide the tapered bead down onto the sinker and you'll find it's a snug fit that should stop the problem :wink:

Forget putting sinkers and then beads on, get on solar's new chod backstop beads they grip line, leaders and leadcore. I put them on 0.235 mono and they were gripping

 

But...............

 

A/ I use the sinkers anyway

 

B/ I already have the beads

 

C/ If these beads grip 0.235 mono aren't they going to be tight on leadcore? (I don't know, not seen them)
