hi m8 dont reallly get on with solid

[NathanWatson]

Why?

[ollie.c]

dont no but if u rekon that then i will give it a go

[NathanWatson]

All I use, just make sure your tops are cut well back so the elastic runs freely and they don't bend too much, use an internal bush and set the elastic so it just goes back in. Make sure you use balanced line and hooks, 0.18 - 0.22 to a Fox series 2 or equivalant for the heavy elastic, 0.16 to the same or a Kamasan B911 for the medium and 0.12 - 0.14 to a B911 sizes 22 - 16 for the light stuff.

I have 8 Kits made up with the following:

4 x Kits = Doubled Preston Original Slip No. 8
1 x Kits = Doubled Preston Original Slip No. 6
1 x Kits = Doubled Preston Original Slip No. 5
1 x Kits = Red Hydro
1 x Kits = Vespe 22+ Solid

Thats covers pretty much everything i need from Silvers to Lumps...
