The device Benjamin described looks like a miniature "eye-bolt" with barbs on it instead of threads. I tried some years ago, and Ken is exactly right - they are nearly impossible to install. They also cause the fly line to hinge at the buried end of the connector, and I have experienced line breakage as a result. Worse yet, they add weight to the end of your line - a bad thing if you are fishing dries. Yeah I knew what those were. I tried them myself, and decided I didn't like them much. They won't go in. Won't come out. Usually punch out the side of the line, and basically suck. -- Bob La Londe Win a Tackle Pack Jig Fishing - Tips and Techniques Contest Courtesy of Siebler Custom Baits http://www.YumaBassMan.com
