KNOTS USED FOR MAKING A LOOP TO LOOP NYLON LEADER
Double Surgeons Knot
| Step 1 |
Use only quality leader material EG. Mason or
any other good 25-30lb. leader material. Fairly stiff material works best as
it is more abrasion proof and helps to turn your large flies over better.
Cut about 6-7' of it off |
|
| Step 2 |
You will now tie in a double surgeon's knot
at each end. This is a very simple knot to tie and it works well. There are
other knots that work just as well, but I have found over the years this one
works just as well and is the easiest to tie for beginners.
See pictures 1,2, 3 and 4. |

Perfection Knot (The second good knot to
use is the Perfection Knot.)
| Step 1 |
Use the same size of leader material as above
and length.
See pictures 1,2,3,4, and 5. |

Figure Eight Knot (The third knot that is
very useful is the Figure 8 knot.)
This is the knot that I use to attach all my
flies to my steel leaders. I have never had one of them come loose and they
are easy to tie.
