I have been using this method for some time but I.blob.the line instead of tying a knot. Its always been solid.
@AverageAngler5 ай бұрын
Good call, I have tried blobbing line before and I tend to melt everything except the piece I am supposed to be melting😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣, I might give it a try though, because you can start too long and adjust it down with a blob. A knot is less forgiving.
@carllast56315 ай бұрын
So like you, I pull it right up and gently blob it away from everything, then I can pull it back to the length I need. Great video though, hardly any of us left use spade hooks 😂

Thanks for sharing, Bob nudd himself uses spade end hooks for hair rigs, but he didn't show me how to tie it ! So, for years now, I've always wondered how to tie hair on a spade end hook. FYI, you can tie a knotless knot without having the ugly knot on the hair, which is how I do them. Simply form the loop with the band in it, then whip over the line up the shank. If I tie them for feeder fishing, I leave the tag end in place, which enables you to adjust the hair length to suit the bait being used. Anyway, I hope I made sense !!!!!

I put the band on the front metal bent pin and tied normally then used a baiting needle to thread the line through and finish as you do and end with your idea of the knot

@@AverageAngler I don't think there is a real name. Anyway eye hook, rig built on the wire separately to then close on the hook with a knot not knot. Forgive me for the grammatical errors, but this is technical English and not being English I have some difficulty.

I can tie these but probably not to the quality of the guru hook lengths I buy pre tied plus it saves a load of time.
