hope it's allowed as very good
If I spent half as long fishing , as I do reading this bloody forum , I'd be twice the fisherman I am.
Hmm cord from front of hook to back? The KY Jigging page and mine are in the opposite direction to the gman one.
I made a few of those nifty knotless ones with a little help from Lucky Tim, then I went and lost them, so I may stick to doing it the slack way ;)
hey jamie
do you reckon the cord should should be rigged through the hook as in your pic or through the eye the opposite way - leaving the point more exposed??
Had a quick look in the box;

Pretty sure Kasey threads the other way around, as do others. Canarvonite might mention which way round longliners thread their hooks?

The way his goes through the eye will keep the hook firmly in when hooked up, the other way would almost tend to pull the hook out under pressure once hooked. That's definately the better way to do it.
