In line weight questions
I have questions about using in-line weights. I typically fish Jets but want to try in lines for a change.
1. Do you attach them to the end of your main line then add a leader behind the weight? Leader needs to be short enough to be able to land fish so I wonder if the weight effects lure action. In my case I would have a maximum 6-7 ft long leader. That seems pretty short not to affect lure action with a 2 oz weight.
2. Do you use clip-on weights? Add them to your line after it's out 50 or so back? then let out more? What type/brand of clip on do you use? Is there a special trick to those?
3. If using clip ons, how often do you lose them when fighting fish? I notice clips can be pretty expensive. Seems like a lot to risk if you lose very many.
Thanks in advance for the help.
