Pike Leader Build w/ Capt. Dan Bennett

When temps start to drop on our local rivers we often start to think about pike fishing. Violent eats and big flies....say less.
Here's Dan Bennett with our preferred leader build for chasing these toothy critters.

Funny enough I was searching for different musky leader setups when y’all posted this 😂

What is the name of the wire to fly knot?

[@FlyFishingChronicles]

Why not using a snap on one end (fly) and a solid ring on the other end as a connecting point steel to mono leader?

[@alexandrebeaudet598]

Snap doesn’t allow the fly to move as much as with a knot.
