Hi mate I know this is posted in 2008. But can you show how you actually tie the hook with a loop?

@raz0r9199 looks to me like it was just crimped on

Many thanks for posting this, i use these imp[act shields but have had a few problems with them not releasing, i realise where i was going wrong now, so thanks! thanks also for showing the loop technique, i have lost loads of sandeels and soft baits as they got trapped against the hook, cheers again

thank goodness I found this. I got a couple rigs free with a rod I bought but had no idea how to use them!!! Thanks so much, and lookout long-distance fish!!!

most people put the hook itself into the impact shield are there any difference between the two methods

For me it depends on the bait and how it will be rigged.

For small bait like small shrimps or small chunks,you will have a space to attatch the hook directly to the impact shield.

In case of big baits where u have to rig the hook completely in,then u have to make a loop in the hook eye and attach it to the impact shield

your best of using an impact lead which is bassicly a better and newer version of this! Its prob a good idea to have a few of these in your tackle box incase you lose your impact leads.
