For my nail knots, I always put on some kind of glue to strengthen the knot and help it run through the guides smother. It really helps me!

You should always test the kind of glue that you're planning to use on an old piece of line both of monofilament and the fly line and the backing to make sure that the glue does not melt any of the fishing lines as this will weaken the rig and cause a break off

EXCELLENT! One of the very few of these guys who sticks to the point. (No waste of time listening to him bask in the sound of his own voice.) It would have been better if he gave some advice about How Much backing and Line to use.

Thanks for cutting off the loops ! Fly fishers should unit at fly fishing is not to be rushed . Learn the important knots . Needle and nail knots are easy with a bit of practice . If your in such a rush to hit the water ……. Maybe give spin cast / bait casting a try .

You need - oh well hi - now anyway - I would need backing on every reel. I have fought a lot of big fish - well salmon everywhere - and YOU NEED THE BACKING TO LET THE FISH TIRE OUT BEFORE YOU BRING THEM IN. There is stretch in the line so they can keep from tearing their mouth. But this video is awesome now. : )
@TheTwispAngler
@TheTwispAngler 3 жыл бұрын
Oh - the backing should float so it doesn't tangle on the ground and bottom rocks. That's great. Oh - well that's only a issue if you loose the fish. Well it's just fun to think about fishing. Well what I'm saying is our line stays tight on the whole retrieve and it doesn't just hang out there. But what if there's a problem? Oh - hey it just remembered. It's our long casts that go errant. Great. Thanks. Bye now. : )

What I do is, I feed the end of the leader through one of the holes of the spool, and that way I don't need to fiddle around to find the end of the leader. Because if you just leave it hanging out of the reel, and the spool turns in transport, then you end up with the end of the leader again sticking to the fly line.

@richardc6932
@richardc6932 7 жыл бұрын
Interesting, when you spooled the backing it was a "right hand retrieve" and when you installed the fly line you reeled with your left hand. Did you stip the backing between frames and reinstall the backing in the reverse direction? Maybe I am wrong on this? Unless you are fighting a large fish that will strip off all the line I wouldn't waste or cut off a perfectly good loop that you paid for.
