Hi there,
this might sound like a really dumb questions but I am new to the circus and I would rather be safe than sorry, so I seek your advice on this one...
What is your favorite way of attaching your leader to a swivel or a ring for that matter - better said: which knot do you use for this?
I've just come back from my first overseas popping/jigging trip and my mate set up my rods for me. He knotted the leader directly onto a solid ring, on which he then put a split ring for connecting the lure. Would it not be better to use a fully rotating swivel instead of a solid ring?
As far as I recall he did a series of over- and underhand knots to secure the solid ring. Any other - better - suggestions?
Looking forward to reading you guys
Cheers Ruben
