5th line - Best way to shorten

lunchbox - 26-9-2010 at 10:50 AM

So I have a segment of a 5th line that I need to shorten by about 2-4ft. The line is about 8ft long with a loop on each end. I would like to keep the loops on each end and I don't want to cut the line as I'm not sure how much I'm actually going to shorten it by.

What's the best way to do this (pics would be great if possible).

Why not just extend the leaders by adding pig-tails to your fly lines that way you don't have to cut anything?

Crazy Smart. You can adjust the Scope of your Neo 2 5th line that way to try and improve the taco effect and kill the kite better.
