Guest pedro Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Saw a new product advertised in a fishing mag a couple weeks ago. I will look it up in the library tomorrow & see if I can find it. It was a knottable wire that was supposed to be like fishing line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pedro Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 Gregg - there is an article ''Winter Tailor Tactics'' by Andy McGovern in an August edition of Fishing World - the one with Ben Kennedy on the front cover. In that article he states ''Nowadays there are many high quality ultra thin wires available. Even better than these products is a knottable wire called Graphite Knottable Tresse which is absolutely perfect for this type of fishing'' I had a quick search on the net for it but couldn''t find any so its over to you.
