I coudn't see this had been discussed...
What line do people use for working SP's?? I tend to work SP's completely weightless, other than the hook.
Braid and flouro leader? What weight braid and leader to get natural? I have been trying 20lb Avani Sea Bass braid as I had some with a 25lb flouro leader (from Veals, not sure of brand). The leader is too stiff IMO reducing the natural looking SP.
Should I stick with the braid as it seems OK, if a little prone to wind knotting (easy enough to watch what I do on a slack line retreive.)?
Also...
Should I use a clip or not, and what type? Bearing in mind that a JB Swivel clip does not fit through the eyes of my SP rod but a JB non-swivel clip does fit. I find the non-swivel clip I am using a little restrictive on the lures movement as it's quite snug to the hook eye and can lock up (hope you know what I mean by that?) at times leaving the lure looking like a lump of wood.
Lots of questions for a Friday afternoon but I am really bored and want to go home...
