Avon Barbel

Hi all,
I'm thinking of using braid for my hooklengnth's this year and was wondering if it was fine to still use my quick change clips.
I'm not sure if there be too much movement causing brake offs at the loop.

Hi Rich

I use braid with the quick change clip and have not lost a fish yet touch wood. I think if your knots are up to it there s no problem

Thanks Jedd,
I use loop to attach my hooklength and was just concerned that the friction might be enough to brake it.

Rich have used quick change clips with a rubber sleve for the last 2 seasons with 10lb drennan sink link had no problems at all but I allways check my hook link before every cast

Hi all,
Cheers Alan, I have opted to stick to pure fluro and mono hooklengths for at least the short term.
After having looked at some braid down the shop I just didn't like the look or the feel of it.
I will probably have a go with some but I have to admit I have so much confidence with the two material's that I normally use I think I may have seen one too many barbel DVD.
Again thanks to you all for the advice.

Rich
