I used subtitles this video–was it helpful or distracting? Let me know for next time! Thank you!
This is the first knot I learned to tie some 45+ years ago ( yeah, I'm old!🤫) Another useful tip when tying this knot on small eye hooks or lures is to run the main line through the eye first then double the line back through to create your doubled line, then tie like you said. It's easier than trying to get the pinched double line through the small eye of them, especially for those of us with poorer eyesight! Both ways do make a very good knot that is definitely time tested and approved!! Tight lines, my friends!!
Easiest knot
I used this knot to catch my 1st King Salmon in Alaska, 30 pounder, I fought it for 15 minutes, my arms jello as I shored the nice King. Great "go to" knot.
👍
Worst knot ever for fluorocarbon, guaranteed to break,it tightens up over time and eventually breaks
