Why did i think this was going to be a thread on weight lifting to build up muscles to be strong enough to compress a Treb...... 
Delkim smart clips are decent ........but has mention the solar ones are the best👍🏻

Go to B&Q and buy a metre long piece of solid fibreglass rod. Cut some 40mm bits off, file/sand the ends as required and tape/whip to the top of the rod blank in your preferred position. Very line friendly and cheap as chips.

Look out for some poultry leg spirals, they make brilliant line clips and they are mega cheap.

I got some from Keith from Defiant mps.
I tried really hard, putting them in different positions etc but I couldn't get the line to pop out a lot of the time.

The Gardner or Greys ones with the rubber O ring work well on thicker blanks. They were no good on my previous Fox Horizon x 3.5lb due to the low diameter blank but fit perfectly on my Infinity X45's

Yes I used to make them years ago out of old bits of rod etc for a couple of quid I'll stick with what I know 👍🏻
Just out of interest rather than start a new thread has anyone owned or used full trebs and lites?
From what I can gather the lite butt section and tip are slightly different?I don't want to start a debate about cod sticks casting etc there a tool for a job I know they've been designed to be made easier for people to compress I'm just curious from light owners when you do drop short from time to time especially with bigger fish how they behave compared to the full trebs?
