The end with the printed on weight in the front to leader section. Thanks so much. I bought this a couple of years ago and haven't used it really until now. For the life of me I couldn't figure it out. You'd think they could throw a black , or red or any color as a back end indicator. Great video.

Great reply, thank you! I couldn't agree more! It would not only make it obvious but easier to see in low light conditions.

Great instructional video! It cleared up what the OPST vid confused with after watching it. I am totally new to this and just stumbled upon it on UA-cam. I will be using this setup here on the Texas Gulf Coast saltwater flats fishing for Redfish. I think that it will work in the winds we have and for the distances we sometimes have to cast. Any ideas, tips, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks so much for the great comment! I would HIGHLY suggest you try the Commando SMOOTH by OPST It's my go to now for Tarpon in Cuba!

You enjoy the loops does that include leader to sink tip? I find just 2 turns as a clinch knot is suffice instead of a loop, but this may cut into the sink tip and the opst tips ain’t cheap.

[@DavidHartlinGuiding]

You definitely want to use a loop on your leader definitely a less chance of cutting your tip with more surface area in a loop to loop the pressure is distributed more evenly!
Great question thanks for viewing be sure to subscribe lots more videos coming!

Great video, I'm looking to get into skagit, fishing for salmon, would you recommend this line over Rio or airflo.

[@DavidHartlinGuiding]

Thank you for the question!
I like them all and fished extensively with them all... But honestly the Commando (Smooth} is the most powerful, simplistic, and versitile line I've ever used but what works for some people doesn't for others. Try different ones if you can before you purchase.
