it's doing bad-evil things that lead to an unintentional concave tip path...

imo, it would be a disservice "to say simply "a concave one"

great idea, Mark ! i just might join the IFFF again if this is adopted

here's a couple of links on making line loops- http://thelimpcobra.com/2012/04/07/fly-line-end-loops-with-the-tie-fast-tool/ http://thelimpcobra.com/2012/09/05/making-a-blind-splice-line-core-loop-to-loop-connection/ (borrowed from Viking Lar's article here on SL) http://thelimpcobra.com/2012/06/08/...

merci Peter !

since water is always in constant movement, to reflect this, the gallery will be an evolving platform.
my plan is to regularly change images and layout to avoid a static ‘book format’ gallery. (expect more soon)

Will, it's not the concave tip path in itself that makes TLs. done on purpose for say, an upside-down loop or other presentation casts, it's a good thing. however, if that concave path is unintentional and provoked by the typical improper acceleration, as in too much Oooomph ! too early in the strok...

some love it, i wouldn't touch it with a stick ! (at least for lines) it needs to remain flexible once cured or otherwise the stiffness of the glue where it joins the fly line creates a hinge which will eventually crack the line's coating.
cheers,

hey Chris, Will's option is very good. having had bad experiences in the past with braided loops i avoided them like the plague but ! i recently got several RM minicon braided loops and they make for a very nice and easy connection. if you go for the minicons, be sure to add a little flexible glue (...

hi Peeps !
i just set up a little photo gallery for my For the love of Water series. i take these when out wandering about or scouting fishing spots.
i hope you'll like

hey Adam, apart from all the somewhat countless threads on the CCI already posted here throughout the years (just take the time to dig around) just go ahead and tell us what you might need and we'll do what we can :) cheers, marc forgot- at the top right of every page you'll find The Board '05-'12 ....
