  • Stopper Knot for bait

    There's a particular knot that I've seen on ready made rigs that have a sequin below it in order to prevent the bait fleeing up the snood...

    ...anyone know it?

    Is this vague enough for anyone to answer?
    Ooh a new vid!

              It's line only... elastic and.... Jelly like... it stretches tight when you are doing your knot. When you finished the knot it relax's then grips your line.... i got some in my box.... from somewhere just noticed it the other day, good stuff though.

              hope this helps

                    power gu is used mainly by fly fishermen,its great for sea angling,it is made from elastic does not damage rig line,used to use it a lot crimps are better,but be carefull not to over crimp as this damages your line

                          Try some Scooby's, what the bairns use for knitting together to make bracelets and other things. Tried them for a few different things and they work very well

                              when the crimp is set that is to a certain size worm bait up ,some like to fling a load up the snood thats why i prefer the knot type ,just my opinion
