Welcome to the site Peter.

Thanks Nailer!

New to the game and lots to learn. Went out a few times last year west end of Lake O and now totally hooked.

I dont have my stuff with me right now, ill try to explain it the best possible.

First tie a slider with desired length of line(we like 10-12ft)of line , one end tie a snap and swivel( part the bait goes on). On the other end tie just a barrel swivel.

Then take the tubing about 1.5 inch long, half way up the tubing cut the tubing half way through, just a slit in the tubing.

To assemble take the line from your rod put it through the tubing to where you slit the in the tubing, pop the main line out the slip in the tubing, string the main line through the swivel( not the snap and swivel) After the line is through the swivel, put the main line through the rest of the tubing. The swivel should sit right in the slit you made.

The tubing may not want slide sometimes, may have to wet it sometimes.

Thanks mattmishler! I think I know how to rig the setup. What size tubing do you use? Thanks

Thats what I've been using for a while. I wondered when somebody would mention them. Pretty easy to use.

I've tried almost all of them over the years. Elberta Clippers work pretty good, used those for awhile, rubber bands, too. The offshore clips... have some of those, they're Ok. Got some of the rubber coated snaps, too. Can't remember who makes (made?) 'em. I guess they all work......

Since I only have 2 riggers I stack mine sometimes, too. Had pretty good luck with that, too. To each his own. Fun to experiment with different techniques, though.

Can someone explain to me the surgical tubing slider? A pic of the setup would be very helpful also. Thanks
