We use these ahead of the bead and behind........the reason for the bead is to keep your wind on from kinking.
We also use these in the Tortugas to keep the weight from clicking into the swivel, noise will scare muttons away.
That being said..........always check your whole wind on before you put it out. That is first area I check.
