And surely tackle shop owners should have some degree of knowledge to know they are useless. I've also found similiar looking traces in the green wire a couple were even smaller than that one probably about 4" !<br /><br />I suppose in a way its not directly the fault of the guy who might of been using it, its probably someone that does'nt know better but has the decency to at least use a trace, of which hes been sold so he probably didnt know he was doing wrong. i know its not very good but i'd rather see them at least trying to do the right thing and learning than these idiots that just fish mono striaght through.<br /><br />As we've said, the blame lies with tackle shops really, if the manufacturer can get sales they will do, its upto the tackle shops to buy the right equipment.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06169765753884961319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441033276209554591.post-73129529698582770292013-06-28T22:50:08.452+01:002013-06-28T22:50:08.452+01:00The problem starts with many tackle shop owners wh...The problem starts with many tackle shop owners who are selling these things (or is it the manufacturers for making them in the first place?) People go in the shop and are advised to have a trace and the traces they have in stock are these things. My blood boils as much as yours Mark. Only thing I can do is help spread the word. riverpikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01022643914816847244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441033276209554591.post-9416944318535311652013-06-28T21:10:27.412+01:002013-06-28T21:10:27.412+01:00I AGREE 100% Paul

There is not one single iota of thought put into fish welfare, its just making a quick buck from the un-informed masses. <br />Its good that whoever it was used a trace, all be it totally inadequate, as I have hooked lost lures that were tied direct to mono!<br />How many have ended up stuck down the throat of a fish? <br /><br />IT MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL !myfudgingtonsilcanceerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826933611402728035noreply@blogger.com
