| New connection method
Slick new connection between mono/flouro and spectra. I have some testing to do, but pretty sure this very easy method will be extremely strong.
I will report back after testing, and post some how to pics.

It is so slick and easy it's scary. I am still swamped with work, but maybe one evening next week I'll be able to do some testing and shoot some how to photos.
You'll be able to premake these "servings" (I'll call them for now), store them in a Plano tray, and they'll fit all sizes between 80 pound and 300 pound! No more looking for the proper size.
I didn't come up with the idea, but the guy who did doesn't fish much. He simply passed it on to me.

I need that popcorn deal. I wonder if it's like those little plastic deals you get with slip bobbers for the bobber stay?

C'mon Dave, it's sunday....you're up, and there's a bunch of daylight ahead of you. I expect the tests to be done and the description up to see by the time of kick-off of football tonite!!!  quick and easy and reliable sounds great to me, and my deckie could use a new connection also!

It's for long range guys, not PV guys
I decided to put it out via pms only to keep you guys in the dark 
j/k Kurt, I'm going to try and post some pics today, that way we can all be testing and playing with the new method
