PST115hp Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 Thanks mate, I have looked through google and can't find what I'm after. I can't work out how to feed the cord through and fitting the retaining ring without completely pulling the lure apart. Thanks Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackfish Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Peter not sure what you're after but it looks like you just thread the cord thru the hole them turn the ring back over itself like your making a cats paw. Is the problem connecting to the split ring. Looking at the photo on the YouTube clip is this what you mean. Not the opening of the clip but where you see the split ring.

Raymondo Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Feed assist hook cord through lure then attatch solid ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackfish Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Really simple, just do a one turn Catspaw knot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PST115hp Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 Thanks Blackfish. I have attached the ring and now can see how simple it is. Not sure what I was thinking before, but thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackfish Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 No worries Pete, good luck with this as well. It gives me a idea on where to use one, though some big critter may eat it and take it home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
