CedarLakeMusky Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 I have noticed that some line ties are horizontal and some are vertical on glide baits. Does this play a role in the action of the lure? Thanks, CLM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Ghost Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Great question. I have heard it said that a horizontal line tie lends itself to a more true left/right glide, less apt to the up/down jerkbait action. And the vertical line tie lends itself to a more erratic up/down + left/right action. That being said, I have gliders that do the opposite of what's said above.

crankpaint Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 i found i get a better left/right action while swimming(straight retreive) on my gliders but when i use a twitch type retreive not much diff. in the two.i have some that walk two feet on a straight retreive and just turning the eye vertical it gos about a foot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
