I got some lead lifts in the mail today. I'm not sure which direction is forward. Do you attach the exposed wire eye or the wire eye that is in the slot to the lead? I assume the line goes to the other end. - HPD

You need to use the long tail sinkers if I'm not mistaken. It clips right onto the sinker when using it at the end of the leader.

On the long tail leads just clip it on.

They work great. When you are ready to check your bait lift the rod tip and reel in quickly. The lead and leader will come right to the surface. Continue reeling and you will avoid snags. They seem to stabilize your rig on the cast as well.
