Another question.

What is blind splicing? Know a good reference to learn it?

Thanks.

Ever tried the sal****er Micron?

Not that I'm aware of - I don't think Cortland was selling teflon-coated
backings the last time I loaded a reel. otoh, I'm almost certain all of
the
Micron I've used was sold as being ok for salt water use, that it wouldn't
rot
if treated reasonably well.

I've always used the regular Micron (never the Micronite gelspun stuff)
mostly
because its wicked easy to blind splice different colors. And so far, at
least, I've never had backing rot or mildew. A good warm water soak, flush
and
air-dry after a salty trip seems to work well enough.

The only problem I've ever had with Micron was trying to find the 30# Red
stuff without resorting to mail order...
