EYEweign Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I've been tying my own for several years and still have trouble getting the hooks to line up with each other when I tighten up the second hook. Anyone have a little secret they would like to share to get them to line up perfect every time.I'm using Seaguar CarbonPro for line. I really like the way it stays straight and doesn't coil up.Any help will be very much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishwater Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Are you using a snell knot? If not, I'd try that. You should be able to readjust the hook pitch before you tighten the knot down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EYEweign Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 I'm snelling both hooks...The problem comes when I tighten up the second hook, very few times it lines up with the first snelled hook. Just wondering if there is a secret to getting them to line up all the timeThanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunflint Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I wouldn't worry if the hooks line up.In fact I would argue that you get better action from the crawler if they don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
