Sam Colvin:
May i ask what knot you boys use from your bimini to your single strand leaders?

And to your twisty's?

Been using a cat's paw and it seems to be good so far!

Brandon Khoo:
Sam, I don't use a bimimi to a single strand leader. It's single strand to single strand using a friction knot like a PR or FG knot. I don't like the midknot myself.

For bimimi to twisty, its a catspaw.

Les Maunder:
Can someone help with some information on the Shogun leader as I cannot seem to locate any details about the product.


Many thanks


Les

Sam, I use a cairns quickie for bimini to single but only with nice soft leader! I find that Fluro C doesnt like that knot. For lighter applications I use a simple double uni.

Twisty to bimini I use the cats paw or the improved cats paw, not sure why its called the improved cats paw the first one doesnt give any trouble to start with!! But I do find the improved paw easier to tie.

Oh I use Galis leader, its just so nice to work with!!
130 or 80 for twisties and 200 single crimped to twisty if the fish are shy.
