Improved Egg Loop Knot for Fishing Sandshrimp, Herring, and Nightcrawlers

[@motionsickness4088]

That is awesome and such a simple concept!

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

I’m glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching

[@leodentperu]

Excellent and useful variation for the egg loop. I always had the same problem when hooking my egg bags: stuck before the new loop or/and tearing the egg bag. This new knot will, definitely, solve the problem. Thank you so much.

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

You’re welcome. So glad you found it helpful.

[@AdamHolmes-r4e]

Yes yes yes yes YES! I love the egg loops knot but the tag tearing up my live bait was very frustrating, I wanna buy you a six pack mate! I’ll only be doing it this way for now on, great vid too, very easy to follow along

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

So glad that you found it helpful. Good luck out there!

[@OregonFishingAdventures]

Thanks for the video man definitely gonna try this with my egg loop knots now

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Nice. I definitely think it’s a better knot.

[@randomguyw5kids685]

Hell yeah, that's amazing. Thanks for the tip

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Happy to help!

[@alfontana6242]

Nick I just found your video. This makes a clean way to bait your sandshrimp without tearing up your bait. I just don’t know why I didn’t think of this. Thankfully you did. Thanks Nick

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Thanks Al. I don’t know why I didn’t think of it 20 years ago, but here we are. Good luck out there, can’t wait to see your videos!

Oh my god I can't believe I didn't think of this myself haha! Thanks!!!!!!

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Glad I could help!

[@halfwatt7905]

Wow. I can’t believe I’ve never seen or thought to do that myself before. I would always use a utility knife to try and cut it as flush as possible. Gonna give this a try with the upcoming springer season. Thanks!! 🍻🍻

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Honestly, I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner. I used to curse those tag ends for years. But hey, better late than never 😂

[@halfwatt7905]

[@tavaressalmon]

Definitely going to try this!

Thank u a million time's 👍👍👍👍

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

You are very welcome

[@enimei2856]

great! And it seems to has the further advantage to not catch the tag end with the tightening loop when setting the knot.

[@kingslew1866]

Thanks Nick! Great demo...

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Thanks for watching Jerry. Hope you are doing well.

[@MrChappy39]

Yes!

[@k9er233]

Smooooooth. 😉

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Thanks

[@philgale1752]

Should always start your wrapping of line away from the hook eye gap .

[@nategremore9162]

So this a leader?

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

Yes

[@richardjones2811]

Ditch the knot and use a regular knot and bait elastic.

[@guyh.4553]

Call me naive, but why don't you just trim the tag end with finger nail clippers and not have a dangling tag? Thats what i do.

[@NorthwestOpenSeason]

I found that the closer I trim the tag end, the more damage it does going through bait. Especially with heavier lines.

[@guyh.4553]

@@NorthwestOpenSeason interesting. Something that I've never considered nor thought of.... hmmmm
