Now I know, I can allow for it.
Had me scratching my head on the bank today though, as I decided that if anything I would probably undershot in a tube. Thought my float was damaged & taking on water when it kept slowing going under. Put another rig on & the same thing happened, took a shot off & all was ok in the water but my head was still saying 'that can't be right ....... maybe I think too much.
