Question: Is there any real advantage
to in-line weights? They seem to be getting very popular. Also, what
is the difference between using in-line weights versus a piece of
hollow lead on the mainline with a bead between the knot & the lead?
Answer:
In-line weights allow you to cast
farther & more accurately, while getting your jig to drop more
quickly.
One of the advantages of using in-line weights to hollow core lead is
that you have no friction, abrasion, or nicks on your line from
weights sliding up & down, nor do you get the split shot
pinching your line. These in-line weights are poured by me, & I
inspect each one closely to make sure the swivels are
securely in place. All of our in-line weights are made with high
quality
Rosco swivels. |
