Bob-
Thanks for all the info about using a braider for
furled leaders. If you don't mind, could you send me a
description of exactly how you use it to me off-list?
Do you use a hook board setup to secure the free end?
I'm going by Walmart today, if they have one I'll pick
one up if they're not too spendy and give it a try,
just for grins and giggles. Will go dig out my
Micropatterns book, also.
