And yes, if you have to change your shot length from 3' to 6", now you have 2.5' of tag end near the hook.

That's not to say you can't have different shot length of line to switch out...but then, back to my initial comment...if you are changing shot line anyways, why buy a new and more expensive "gadget" when you can accomplish the same with just a swivel and a perfection loop at the end of your shot line?

Haha - that's excellent insight MuskieBait! That's another reason why I joined this forum. For the fishing wisdom. I have to admit that since I'm new, I've already been lured into buying this new gadget to build up my tackle box.
