Backing to line knot....how about the Castwell?

[ducksterman]

GREAT!....I wish I had been more patient

[J Clarke]

How does line go through the ferrules ?????? The only proper join is a splice, waxed thread wound carefully, whip finished and rolled. Never known to fail if properly done.And it goes through rings like a charm. Jim Clarke

If you are hunting trophys in the salt I'd suggest a double Bimmini twist.

[J Castwell]

Lineside,,, yup, thinking that too for the gel backing. But, still like the Albright for the line end.

Could...anything that catches on the ferrules is a negative and could cost a fish...read that trophy...in a perfect world,,, I don't want to feel or hear a click if something goes through my ferrule...

A little confused on this one. Ferrule is where
rod pieces connect, how does your line effect that?
Are you talking about GUIDES?

[ducksterman]

GUIDES....indeed unfortunately not the first time I've done that ...and I'm not even dyslexic though sometimes I wonder

[J Castwell]

I know.. I know... I was just hoping that the Castwell Knotzi would make an appearance if I mentioned it.

You called? Why the shot?

[Brian]

Having just read all the upper comments I would suggest that a BRADED LOOP be attached to the line then a tucked blood knot to this for the backing.

"Backing to line knot....how about the Castwell?"

If you're so unsure how about that Allbright? A standard!

[J Clarke]

SPLICE IT !!!!!!
