How to connect the fishing line?

First, the main line connects the poles.

Two knotting methods for connecting the main line to the pole tip are recommended: external and internal, which can form a fixed ring at the end of the fishing line. According to the determination, the retention rate of knot strength can reach 95%.

Second, the main line connects the 8-character ring

The connection between the main line and the 8-shaped ring is shown in the figure below.

This is the method with the highest knot strength, which is specially used to connect the main line and the 8-shaped ring, and has also been widely used by competitive anglers in recent years. But even if there is no problem with the quality of the figure-eight ring, the tensile strength loss at the figure-eight ring is the biggest under normal use. This kind of wear is not a simple "grinding", but a fishing line fatigue caused by repeated deformation.

The simple way to solve this problem is: after using the large wire several times, cut a little at both ends and shorten it before using it-for example, change 4.5M to 3.9 m.
