Thanks Mike,
Ive alway pushed mine up to the sleeve rather than pushing the sleeve onto the loop first 😱 hopefully doing it correctly now may stop the hinging wear I get where braid and sleeve finish and flyline starts.

Thanks Jeremy, I wouldn't say correctly, the guide is simply the way that I fit them.

Quite a lot of folk ask me how I get the line right up to the loop, so this should hopefully help with that.
