Great product holds to the fly line like it should.

5 Matt R
Although I did mess up on my first attempt by sliding the plastic tube back over the frayed end too far( my fault, not the product), I have to say these things are a great addition to the arsenal. East to use and hold tight and secure. Was worried about it affecting casting/turnover but it's like it's not even there. For the price I definitely suggest grabbing a pack.
