quick question
when tying spade end hook how many turns do you give them i'm asking because its been quite a topic over the weekend as I've done about 70 hooks i was messing around with a few turns on some then pulling for a brake i did this on 0.6 line 0.7 and 0.8 the results i thought were quite interesting as the 0.6 line and a 20s Gama green 4turns broke the line first so as for lightness of hook and line this would work or i'm i being daft i normally do 6 turns on light lines and go up on the amount of turns as the size of hook gets bigger
quick question
Usually 7 for me Joffie - irrespective of hook size/line diameter............
But look forward to hearing more on the subject from others

quick question
i mean its balanced if the line brakes before the knot come off :-/and it didn't look like it would where's bill
quick question
I never put less than 10 turns on joffy even on 0.06 as long as you wet the hook an knot before you pull tight.. the more turns you put on the better the hook sits, less turns the more chance of it sliping and breaking on the spade.

quick question
Must admit it is just six turns for me.
I don't like wasting line
I can see Qs point on this one so I might dig in and buy another spool of line and try it
