Fishing Knots
Your fishing line is only as strong as the knot used to tie it. Over time all knots start to weaken in some degree. The ability to tie a correct knot will save you from losing lures, bait as well as a fish. Listed below are good choices to learn and a few tips:- Always moisten the knot before snugging it up. This reduces the heat from friction that causes slight abrasions when you pull it tight.
- When tying a knot give it a smooth strong pull to complete it on your lure, hook or leader. Don’t be timid about testing it with a couple good pulls. Better to know your knot is tied correctly than losing a big fish.
- Always leave a little extra line before clipping the tag end after completing your knot some knots slip slightly. By leaving a little tag is good insurance that your knot is tied correctly.
- Always retie your knot before a new trip and check your knot frequently when fishing, all knots will weaken with use.
