...by putting about six feet of front taper from an old discarded 10 w floating shooting head in front of tip 2 on my Windcutter, using braided loop connections.
As I´ve mentioned I think that the WC doesn´t work on my 15 footer with tip 2 (the middle, heavy tip) taken out, since it gets too light. And if you just leave tip 2 and take out tip 1 it gets really splashy and uncomfortable. Funnily enough, this wee bit of front taper added to tip 2 really does the trick. I only lose about 5 grams compared to the full WC and I´m down at apr 13 meters. Cast like butter. Sure, still a bit violent but unless you apply too much power the presentation is great.
finally I can fish my 15 footer in all those tight spots as well, wihtout having to shell out for a new line.
Anybody else who´ve tried this?
