carpoholic Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 Use a gardner tube threader for anti-tangle tubing. You might if you are careful get away with fuse wire as well. Quote
joshmac Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Posted February 9, 2006 whats a tube threader? and how would i use fuse wire?? Quote
carpoholic Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 A tube threader is a length of fine stiff wire with a loop. You thread the wire down to the end of your tubing,place your line into the loop of the wire and pull the wire back through the tubing and "hey presto" the lines threaded through You can do the same with fuse wire if you play around.

pineaplepopup Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 go into the match section of ur tackle shop and look for a dimond eye threader . first thread the wire through the tubing then thread the line through the loop in the wire then just pull the wire through. Quote
