Title: bar rig keeps on getting twisted how come?
Post by: Jimmy on August 10, 2004, 01:17:53 PM

Was out on Sunday and was trying to bar fish and my leader which was only about 24" kept on getting twisted. What am I doing wrong.

I am using 20 lbs should I up that or maybe more swivels?

Help please

As these guys said, but use 40lb leader.  The Spin & Glow will fatigue your leader over time as it spins.  Don't want to lose that big one. 8)
