Bought some safezone heli leaders yesterday, decided to take them back this morning and exchanged them for some of this esp leadcore and splicing needles. Used this guide, spot on everytime. Cheers

"gently tease the needle back through"

Thats the hardest bit, ive broken no end of splicing needles doing this, is there an easy way something im not doing.
Last few times i think ive got a bit better!

you need to feed the sheath over the needle as opposed to pulling the needle. if that makes sense. if you pull the needle you are tightening it down as you pull it through.

thanks for that i found it usefull.

but some of it look very confusing as i am new to carp fishing and am still getting the hang of thing like this.

this way helped me soo much im now addicted to making my leadcore sections, from 6ft to 1ft all great when you catch on them just thinking that you made it

When you make a loop and you gently tease the loose end back through, how does it manage to not pull all the way back through and undo the loop?

I hope that makes sense

That made sense matey and I have absolutely no idea how but it does work perfectly!!! Still baffles me now why doesn't it pull through?
