Intro | Russ Peak Loop Knot | Tapered-end Loop | Braided Loop | Nail Knot Loop
Should you need to make a loop in the field, you can create a strong loop using just a nail knot. The only tool needed is a needle or a hollow tube. And, if you know how to make the nailless needle knot (see Practical Fishing Knots by Lefty Kreh and Mark Sosin), you don't even need that. You also could use a Uni-knot.
Step #1. Simply fold the line back on itself to make a loop of the desired size and tie a ten-turn knot. Do not leave the fly line extending as shown. Trim it as close as possible. It will still leave a little bump, but coating the knot with a flexible cement will smooth it out.
|
Step #2. For added strength, you can make a loop using two nail knots. This method produces an exceptionally strong connection.
