keving ... I wonder ..... you never said what you want to stop sliding about !!!

If it's lead wieghts / paternosters / snoods etc. then nylon / gum won't do too good, and plastic 'bits'/ crimps are the answer.
If it's to stop bait sliding / floats etc, then silicon tube and mono/gum is great.

Do tell us what you want to stop moving ......

I am a beginner, see other posts, but it seems to me that power gum is a no brainer. Stop knots are dead long live power gum!

Especially if like me you have, choad, fingers! ha ha
