Tie This Knot Instead Of A Loop Knot! | Flats Class YouTube

[@joshuanattinger9694]

That was a great episode of Flats Class with Capt Codty. I'm in Ft Myers and looking forward to checking out those spots on the river. Great advice on the knot too! Thanks!

[@tonybishop51]

This is a great idea! Thank you, Capt!

[@LowCountryFishing]

Love the new intro brother. I also tie an improved clinch knot with a 40lb leader on all lures with front trebles. Keeps the leader stiff, straight and away from the hook.

[@kencleg7721]

40 lb I don’t use that for yellowtail 30 max ?

[@JoseLopez-sn3tv]

Awesome tip!!! Thank you I plan to try this this weekend…

[@flatsclasscharters]

Enjoy the holiday my friend

[@240LTS]

[@justpassinthrough7]

Great info!

[@abelabner]

Thanks for the info! I love the idea of less fouling!

[@nicklausb]

Great tip. Thanks

[@MirrOlureManiac]

Awesome tip! I utilize this tip in windy conditions on the open flats. FLATS SNACK RULES!

[@matthewray5954]

Good video and nice presentation, thanks captain

[@corkycoursen-tv4wv]

So true on the foul, it’s a total pain. I will try your suggestion real soon. Thank you for the info.

[@Heartgator]

Nice! Thanks Captain

[@flatsclasscharters]

Anytime…

[@1997wolverine]

[@stkyrce]

This makes sense. Thank you for explaining it.

[@jimelmore9728]

Excellent tip…

[@alGuest-gw9pb]

Excellent advice, thank you

[@masd107]

Best beard in fishing!

[@k9er233]

Great advice! We skip for Black Bass and this will definitely help.

[@louisoctaviojr6876]

CA great info. Hey, what lure was on the loop knot?

[@fishingwithdrupydog5547]

Very cool I Was thinking of using different types of leader to stop the loop from catching my hook, I really swear by yo Siri pink soft floor carbon. It actually gives me the best results even though I do have to untangle the hook from the loop a lot of times thanks CA always learn something from you.

[@ray8535]

CA, what are your thoughts on speed clips ? Wondering what your opinion or your experience is? Do you recommend it or prefer sticking to a straight leader to lure. I'd be a great video. Happy New Year, btw

[@skorflyfishing]

Great, great detail. Your point makes a huge difference even to me, a fly fisherman. Loops are not needed for light tippet since a light tippet is often limp enough to allow movement. Also, I have noticed the same issue with Loop knots allowing the material on certain flies to foul more often. Don't get me wrong, loops are often the best choice depending on the situation and stiffness of a tippet, but they shouldn't be automatic. These fine adjustments can make a huge difference. Thank you so much for sharing your vast knowledge.

[@NoleYakin]

Good stuff CA

[@flatsclasscharters]

Thanks for the good feedback

[@drewwilson145]

Did you get contacts. How do you like em

[@jayrusso3227]

That makes perfect sense! A problem I've delt with in my fresh water fishing many times not knowing there was a solution. Thank Capt.

[@Vagab0nd]

Man you are the most “fisherman” looking guy I’ve seen on KZbin. A cross between Captain Highliner and the most interesting man in the world beer guy. lol.

[@kennychao4143]

Interesting idea. 3 out of 10 cast the line always snag the front treble hooks. I’m going to try this knot.

[@edwardwoltman3827]

Hey Capt...what if your using a split ring. Will the improved clinch on a split ring cause the leader to snag the front treble also....or is it good to go....thanks.

[@markmesaros422]

Xcellent tip,,,,,very common problem solved

[@willperryman4559]

Bravo, I use a 5 turn improved clinch knot 90% of the time unless I’m walking a spook or something similar 🍀🎣🍀😎

[@scottmcgahey891]

Gonna try that with top water fishing 🎣 for smallmouth up state NY 👍👍

[@bmartin103]

Do you have any videos already on topic of “ how long you fish a color before switching” does it depend on situation? Weather etc…

[@russellkasprzyk4934]

Yes

[@patrickrossi7279]

You make me feel sane. Agreed! Lighter leader more wrap. You know better with the 40lb. If you hook a UBoat you have much better odds. UBoats happen.

[@robertapreston4200]

Twitch twitch pull the slack.... itch itch on my back. 😅😂

[@peakwa]

ah. on the Buzbe store..

[@geoffginer8823]

Take me fishing in Clearwater

[@heinzjohnlandauer5101]

Too much waffle. Get to the point

[@philipvaughn1886]

😂😂😂

[@royfranc]

Didn't see the example

[@boodzify]

I’m still waiting to see how to tie the knot

[@teetimeaz]

How many times have you hooked a fish on the front hook. Very seldom for me. Why not just remove it.

[@louielouie4187]

I love ya ... But... Put singles on them plugs So much nicer on those fish Just saying Your awsome just don't understand why treble hooks are legal They tear eyes out and are cluster mess I apologize for my bias but say NO to treble

[@mikemarks6562]

Sub’D up!

[@kurtdavidson9808]

Am I missing something. You did not actually show how to do the knot? I must’ve missed something.

[@davehall7203]

Over 7 minutes of waffle that could have taken 1 minute and never shows you how to tie the knot, waste of time

[@matthewangelosolt3763]

you dont know how to tie an improved clinch knot look it up

[@falcosalmo3613]

Or you can grow up and start fly fishing... the real challenge.

[@birdbig1]

Fly fishing is for incels or 60 yr old+. 👍

[@rudygarcia127]

Waste of time

[@69mjar]

Memorial day isn't a happy weekend. Just sayin.
