If you’re going for monkeyface, you don’t even need the mono leader: just slide a snap swivel on there and clip a hook to it.


I talked to a fish and game warden and he told me you have to have some line on the end and not just a hook to count as hook and line fishing. He said a hook to a swivel is not a legal method for taking MFP.

This is what I was told and I could have misunderstood but you might want to check before fishing with out line again.

Lots of good info, thanks. I was thinking it would be good to be able to adjust the length, if for nothing else so it is easier to transport.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.  ~John Buchan
