ste1984 Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 good thinking Are they ment to slide that freely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zammmo Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Have you tried piercing the beads sideways and pulling the line through. NOT to be attemted if using thick leaders or leadcore... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlieg Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
