Preparing The Fluorocarbon

• Cut the desired length of fluorocarbon for your topshot. Industry standard is 25 feet, but can be changed varying on conditions and your own fishing technique.

• Once cut, secure one end of the fluorocarbon around something sturdy and stretch. This will cause the fluorocarbon to lay flat and minimize the stretch that will occur inside the hollow braid when fighting a fish. YES, FLUOROCARBON DOES STRETCH!

• For line sizes 50 pounds and below, cut the splicing end at an angle with a razor blade. The precise slanted cut allows for easier workability and eliminates the possibility of cutting the hollow braid from the inside-out when fighting a fish under tension.

• For line sizes 60 pounds and above it is necessary to file the splicing end into the shape of a bullet. There is such great tension when fighting fish under these pressures that there can be no angle at all and must be smoothed round by the file.
