I told my buddy Cliff last weekend that I may try a barrel swivel and tie the fireline to one side and leader to the other but I was thinking of hooking the bobber also on the fire line side of the swivel as well. From time to time, WHEN I WOULD GET LAZY AND CAST SIDE ARMED NOT OVERHAND, I would get the swivel wrapped up on both lines. With the barrel swivel, I would still get to use the fireline, still not wrap the bobber at all, and get to hook the bobber straight to the swivel as well for the action of the bobber is better on the swivel instead of wrapping the bobber. I will try my above system this weekend and see if it works. I would bet if a 6 pounder or better comes in the boat, the "Elnut-Rig" will be born.
