I wish Iived closer, so I could take your fly casting classes. I've watched your casting series a few times, but I'd really like some in person critique and help. Anyway, thank you for everything.

Thumbs up 👍🏾 for sure. My first perfection knot vid and KZfaq had your vid at top of list. Algorithm got it right. Couple of questions. I’m brand new to fly fishing and was gifted a 10wt rod and reel spooled with 10wt intermediate sinking line. I fish saltwater and will be learning this set up from the shoreline. Will a perfection knot hold up to fish in the 30 lb+ class fish? I target striped bass, albacore and bluefish. A 10-20 lb fish is norm and 30+ is possible. Is this the right knot or are there more appropriate loop knots for this saltwater application? Thx u.

Hi there I’ve just watched every one of the perfection loop videos on you tube, studied them all very closely as I don’t think this is as good a knot as everyone thinks. Now I might be wrong and in a way hope I am, but I’ve tied a dozen perfection loops on each end of piece of line with my own loops which I’ve been using for ever on the other end (basically a loop of line with an overhand knot with a twist in the standing line). So, I’ve got twelve pieces of line with the perfection loop at one end and my other knot at the other. Fingers in each knot and pull (one at once)! Every one broke at the perfection loop! Now I’m no genius and I don’t have any laboratory testing facilities, but it seems to me that the PL is not what it’s cracked up to be! Honestly I would love to be proved wrong, so if anyone would like to get back to me I would be most interested. Thank you by the way for the video. Martin from England.

Thank you for teaching this knot, as well, videos on building your own leaders. Im new to fly fishing and your explanations of building your own leaders helped me comprehend and understand the dynamics and reasoning behind the why and when behind different choices in leaders and tippets. Theres definitely a learning curve to fly fishing and doing it properly, while also being productive, when compared to fishing with a spinning or bait casting rig. Fishing for trout in streams is different from fishing for bass or pan fish on a lake or pond. Again, thank you for clearing the air on that topic.

Thank-you very much, I've got it now. Pretty embarrassing knot tying skills on my part. I used to always tell myself "can't tie knots? Tie lot's!" Pretty useless trying to fly fish on the Bow River in Calgary, Alberta. Hope I learn from all your videos. Thanks again.

Don't you mean "too" much instead of "to" much? If you are going to leave stupid and hurtful comments here, for the world to see, you should at least spell correctly. One would think.
