Do you tie directly on to the eyelet of the slammer or do you tie onto the split ring thing that it comes w/. My buddy has one and hes used it once and the eyelet seems to already worn a groove from the split ring. I was wondering if that would affect how the bait runs? Maybe i should take off he split ring and tie directly on? I just picked up the 9" slammer at Bass World West and i wanna get i right before i make the first cast w/ it. Thanks brutha.
