Fly fishing knots?

Posted on Feb 14, 2012 under Fishing Knots | 3 Comments

I want to know what the proper knot is to use when tying a midge or nymph as a dropper fly under a dry fly. I’m talking about tying the seconded piece of tippet used to connect the dropper fly to the dry fly to the hook on the dry fly. I use 6 or 7x Floucarbon tippet so it can’t cut into itself. Right now I use a clinch knot, but it think it’s only a 90% knot and I’m looking for a 100% knot if there even is one that is supposed to be used here, if not I think I’ll use a Davy’s Knot.

I hope I wrote that so you can understand it, if you can’t then let me know so I can try something different.

I don’t think there is a 100% knot. Do you wet your kont? Wetting you knot will improve it by 5% to 10%. Are you tying it to the bend or the eye.

Fly Fishing Knots, The Albright Knot. Backing to Fly Line.

Posted on Feb 07, 2012 under Fishing Knots | 3 Comments

Attaching fly line to backing using the Albright Knot.

Years ago we would have to tie our oun loops to the back end of the fly line to attach our running line. The nail knot, tied with a tube is easier but when we expect to be into our backing with every hook up I want a knot that will slide thru the rods guide smoothly. The nail knot does this fine, but when you have a fast bone fish, or permit, salmon, or steelhead, you want a knot that won’t strip the outer coating of the fly line. Now days it seems all the fly line makers are putting a loop on the back end of the lines. Here we show you how to tie the Albright Knot.

How To Tie Braided Fishing Line to Monofilament or Fluorocarbon Leader- Easy and Strong Fishing Knot

Posted on Jan 30, 2012 under Fishing Knots | 5 Comments

Video demonstrates a very easy and strong fishing knot for connecting braided line to your monofilament leader. This fishing knot is very strong and is easy to tie.

The knot is very similar to the Albright, technically the Reverse Albright but with the addition of the Surgeons Loop to close off the braid instead of having the open loop

In the past I had used barrel swivels for my monofilament leaders and ran into problems with the barrel getting hung up in the rods tip and breaking the guide’s ring. This knot when finished has a very low profile and goes through the guides on my Fishing rods very cleanly.

The striped bass and bluefish I target fishing the Fire Island Inlet in New York have put this knot to the test over the past several years and I have not had the knot fail at all.
