Hi all,
I'm sure this is a daft question and I'm missing something, but here goes.
I'm trying to spool up my fly reel with some DT4F line. I've attached the backing to the reel and wound some on. The fly line has a fused loop at the reel end. What is the best way to connect the two. Initially I thought tie a loop in the backing and bob's uncle - loop to loop job done. But, of course, this would invlove threading the entire fly line through the loop. Am I being incredibly thick? Or is there an easier way.
Any pointers very gladly recieved - and preferably before the missus gets back and sees the lounge covered in backing and fly line!
Thanks in advance.
Jon
