The Loop Trace

Message

#1 Post by **dfella25** » Thu Oct 29, 2009 5:11 pm

I want to make a loop trace for use over the weekend. I have found loads of different pics but I just wondered if anybody had their own take on it? Although the pics clearly show the bits and pieces that go into this rig they don't have dimensions included.

I was hoping for someone who has a knack at using this trace might give me a heads up on "best practice" for tying it as well as recommending snood lengths etc.

Any help will be greatly plagiarised and presented as my own of course

the only problem you will have with this rig is if you make the 'loop' too long. it can tangle. try keeping it down to 20" or a little more if you really think you need it.
