I use the regular clinch knot and the double surgeons knot, and that’s it. I’m so glad he’s shedding light on the simple knots and not glorifying knowing 8 hard-to-use knots. There’s no point. The basics work fine for what I’m fishing for.

Interesting choice for #3; I use the back to back uni-knot for larger lines in lieu of the blood knot. The BtBUK is also forgiving when adding lines that aren't a size apart (in my experience), since both are pulling into each other. Peace.

@brycealthoff8092 11 ай бұрын

Same here. Although I use it mainly because I find it easier to tie.

I use the same 3 daily, and a few different ones on arbor, backing and leader attachment areas..after learning dozens. You’re a Huge help in the world of Flyfishing. Really appreciated..Thank you!

@farmerbob4554 3 жыл бұрын

Good information on knots. I use these three plus a loop knot for tapered leader to fly line. It’s small and the tag end can be trimmed close so it doesn’t catch in the guides. A shot of UV resin makes it even slicker.

It would behoove everybody here to ditch the clinch knot. Your next trophy trout with depend on it, ask me how I know. Personally I want my knot as close to breaking strength as my line rating. The three I now actually trust are: Orvis Knot, Trip/Dbl Surgeon, and for a loop knot the Non Slip Mono Loop. For the swinging fly guys, a Turl Knot is your friend. Yes a loop knot provides more action at the cost of less feel, I usually only use it on strip or jig streamer actions.

@manifestgtr Жыл бұрын

Nope, clinch knot works just fine…same with improved for smaller diameter and/or fluoro. I catch hundreds of fish every year, have maybe 3-5 knot failures per year and they’re my fault nearly 100% of the time. There’s no need to complicate your life with this and that…I like having slightly under breaking strength in my knots…makes life a lot less painful when you get hopelessly snagged on some piece of debris in the current.

@oak8728 Жыл бұрын

@@manifestgtr sure maybe smaller diameter and fish. I target sizeable trout in the 4-6lb range, steelhead and salmon 10+. I don’t get a chance to fish smaller stuff so maybe it works then but nobody up here uses that knot lol
