Knots for Fly fishing
Knots are a huge aspect of flyfishing success. If you don’t make a good knot you run the risk of losing the fish and in some cases your entire fly line.
- The ArbourKnot. This is the Knot to use for attaching your backing to your reel. This is the most simple knot of all the knots you will need. http://www.flymartonline.com/article214.html
- Albright Knot. This knot is for attaching you backing line to your main fly line. This knot is a little more difficult but not to bad. http://www.flymartonline.com/article213.html
- Nail Kot. The nail knot can be a little frustrating for some. With just a little practice you can master it as well. This Knot is for attaching the Fly line to the tapered leader. http://www.flymartonline.com/article212.html
- Doube Surgeons Knot. This knot is once again very simple. It is used for attaching the tippet to the tapered leader. http://www.flymartonline.com/article211.html
- Improved clinch Knot. This is the knot you will use the most. This knot is used to tie on your fly. It is very simple, the one thing i must say is do not take a short cut on this one. You can do a clinch knot instead of a improved clinch, but it is not as strong. I would suggest you always try to do the improved clinch. http://www.flymartonline.com/article210.html
Practice these knots, they are very important and will help you catch fish.
Good luck
Tight Lines & Fun Times
