Celticav Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 This is a great knot I have been using lately, very easy to tie and incredibly strong. Learned it from watching a salt water show where they were catching 100+ lb tarpon on 50 lb test, works fine for my bass fishing, love it on my flipping jigs. Here is a link to a video on how to tie it, enjoy... http://www.addictivefishing.com/tips/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Cool find Celt, looks simple to tie. I will try it out next weekend walleye fishing in northern IL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celticav Posted May 13, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2003 I love it, super easy and really absorbs shock well, plus the tag end going to the back like that really does make a difference when fishing grass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadlystreamer Posted May 16, 2003 Report Share Posted May 16, 2003 I like that knot. Looks like it's worth trying. I'll be getting my little boat out soon and hope to fill the live box, will within reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livelybaits Posted April 28, 2008 Report Share Posted April 28, 2008 The Canoeman, Merrill Chandler, was a local legend around here. He passed away about five years ago. Great knot for big game fish. For a lot of the other fishing that I do around here, this one works pretty well too: Mirrolure Knot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
