I am a fly fishing guide and I have used the Davy Knot for years to tie all my size 14 and smaller flies to my tippet. I have never had a problem with this knot and it has caught browns up to 30 inches long. Rainbows up to 10 pounds. When you are explaining to people on how to tie that knot be sure and tell them not to pull on the tag end. Just clip the tag off if it is too long. It is a simple knot to tie and leaves very little tag if any to be trimmed off.

I've caught plenty of bass, maybe up to 1.5lbs, on the Davy, and I am always surprised how strong it actually is.

Try a Jack's Knot. Make sure it's tied Correct way.
