Default Loop on sink tip lines
Just got a cortland 5ft sink tip line and I'm worried about leader cutting through the loop. Could anyone tell me if this is a problem. Would I be best to change my knot for the leader as i normally just use a fishermans knot for my leader onto the braided loop.

cheers in advance

Alex

I would use a loop to loop connection Alex.

Was thinking that myself. If the loop does burst eventually I'll just cut it and put a braided loop on. Just not took on with the loop finish at all. Cheers for your advice.
