    I’ve recently picked up a couple of hand line setups.

    I’m trying to get a good starting point as far as lead length and position on the shank. I’ve watched season 9 ido handling video to get some ideas along with many other videos. I have never fished like this before and I’m just looking for starting tips.

    Thanks

    Dave Koonce is the man you need to talk to. Send him a PM and see if he responds.

    Was able to get out last Sunday on the Illinois River to practice handling in an area where I know fish are. What a blast. Dave Koonce gave me some starter tips and everything fell in place.

    I’m hooked now.
