markuk Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 I have recently started carpin after a break from fishing of many years! Up till now I have only used braid as a hooklink which has served me well. So thought I would give fluorocarbon a go (the esp stuff). Anyway my question is.... How can you straighten the line, my hook link always ends up looking like a spring?? Which ain't going to sit well on the lake bottom!

fullhouse Posted April 27, 2006 Report Share Posted April 27, 2006 If you pre-tie your rigs you could steam or dip them in warm/hot water & pull straight & then just put them into a stiff rig wallet. Works for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
