I don't know the glue type, it is hard but flexible like epoxy. It is too flexible to be superglue. I think the oil that is left on the line after manufacture must be cleaned off with a solvent to get bonding with nylon. It's probably a well guarded trade secret as only one company produces this line. It is the best pre-stoppered line I have ever used and is incredibly hard wearing
All of these videos are very good. Question about the stopper knots shown, pre-knotted on line, 08:50,. are these the same knot shown at 05:30 ?, but with differant application? There is another knot shown elsewhere in these vids, but haven't relocated this time through. regards,
thank you, 'glue' brings another question, would you know the glue brand and maybe a part number for the glue, I've never found a glue for nylon type materials, even after years of looking for it for a number of projects. thankyou very much, I'll be looking for it more, on the video it sure looked like there is a mastic/glue on the knot, sorry, should have asked first, my complements on your internet pages and all of the information you have included. thank you,
Apreciate that very much, should I find one that may work, I'll let you know. in our area the use of kite fishing is very limited because of almost constant on shore winds. So far I believe the use of kites may be disallowed on the Texas coast. I'll have to request a ruling or allowance on kite fishing. thank you,
I am amazed by this video, I wouldn't even be walking on the beach under these conditions but these guys were catching fish.
No the one at 8.50 is glued in place. It is a piece of pre-stoppered commercial fishing line available in 1000 meter hanks in New Zealand
