william cohen Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 Reading Jed Davis , Spinner Fishing for Steelhead, Salmon and Trout. He suggests putting the tape on the back of the blade. I'm wondering if anyone has tried this technique , compared to applying the traditional way? What is your opinion?

Jig Man Posted December 15, 2021 Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 My opinion is that there would be wrinkles to deal with but I haven’t tried it so it is just an opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william cohen Posted December 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2021 You could apply strips or circles from a paper punch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bentrod425 Posted December 16, 2021 Report Share Posted December 16, 2021 I read that book and tried various options. Can't say I noticed a difference between tape on the inside or outside of the blade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
