Posts: 599 01/21/12 12:22 AM SPONSOR Resident Engineer LED GREENIE	Tags : None I'm planning to supply the 5" longline SS clips with 5/16" opemimg, along with a 1/4" braided Nylon Line with each light, as well as selling the combo as an acessory item. Just add your favorite weight and you're ready to go shrimping. My question is: How long should I make the cord as a standard cord? I'm thinking between 12-15 feet long should be sufficient, even for most of the deep holes that I know about. What say you? I bought 200 clips and a 1000' spool braided nylon cord plus an electric cord cutter to fuze the cut. I'll bring long line clips and cord to the Feb 11 Seminar. Purchase the ledgreenie™ Pro HERE !

I do not tie my weights off to the boat and use about 20ft lines that have knots tied all up and down to stop the LL clip from potentially sliding. 25' would be nice, people can cut it down to whatever lenght they want.

The customer needs to have a choice and the lines could be precut if that is better for you. Maybe 15 - 20 - 25 - 30 - and a couple of 40 foot lengths for Haulover (a few of each precut) and you precut more when you get low. Boca Raton FL
