          I had a look at it the other week & although it was extremely consistent in size & cut, it was also extremely hard & shiny. I wouldn’t feel confident in moving the shot once it was put on the line without damaging the line underneath in my completely honest opinion.

          I had heard a lot of people saying good things about it which was why I looked at it, but decided to stick with the Matrix/Preston/Garbolino/Anchor shot that been using for years.

            Echo that….although there’s a video on youtube by alan scotthorne called shotting the rig that helps a bit. The shot he’s using looks suspiciously like zlt which is a lot softer if you get the right stuff…
