Iv recently started using braided loops on my tapered leaders for switching between floating and sink tips and I much prefer it to perfection loops .... Any one else do this or just me

i thought "diapered leads" was some new crazy technique... i'm assuming autocorrect struck again? lol.

i had an issue with braided loops, since they are designed to fit 3 different line sizes, its not a great fit, I've 2 of them slip off, once when my back cast caught a weed on the bank, and the second and last time was when i trying to land a fish, will never use braided loops again, will stick with perfection/weilded loops

I use a little dab of shoe goo to make it doesn't slip
