I normally strip back an inch but have often used it unstripped and it works well like that. I like the Korda Hybrid a lot, but I have found that the very fine inner braid which is excellent for presentation, tends to cut into, or rub against the carps mouth, and for this reason I stopped using it. Kryston Snakeskin is excellent for use with small baits and small hooks like a single grain of maize on a size 8 or 10, the multi-strand inner allows the bait to behave like a free grain, this is an excellent edge in winter.
