mark poulson 2,560 Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Thanks for the kind words. A tip. I bought some of the "invisible" braid and found out, of course, that it's not invisible, just white. So I put it on a sight fishing setup. I had some left over, so I used it to retie my skirts just in front of the rubber band. I do two wraps, pull them tight, tie a square knot, and then do another four wraps and another know. Then I put a drop of crazy glue on the braid, and let it dry. Finally, I clip off the tag ends. Then, when the rubber band breaks from the sun, the skirt is still solidly attached. Once you've done a couple, it goes pretty quickly. I've redone all my spinner bait and chatterbait skirts that way, too, and even added tinsel "tails", like the Strike King Perfect Skirt. The thinner tinsel keeps the chatterbait from rising up on a fast retrieve, so I can burn it lower in the water. column. Quote Link to comment
