If you want to be successful at fishing, you must learn to tie some basic knots. Having the proper knot can keep the fish and bait on the line. When you tie a knot, make sure it is done in a neat fashion. Make sure all knots are completely tightened. Also, lubricate knots before tightening down. Knots can easily be lubricated with saliva or water.
The most common knot is the clinch knot. This knot is used where the line meets the hook. To tie the clinch knot, pass the fishing line through your lure. Double back and place the line around your lure five times. Thread the loop through the eye. Hold the lure and slide against the eye. Close the knot tightly. If you will be using a leader, you will need to learn the double surgeon knot. To begin the double surgeon knot, double the tag end of your fishing line. Hold the tag end and bring the loop around. Place the loop through your overhead knot. Moisten the knot and pull tight. If your an angler fisher, consider learning the king sling knot. To perform this knot, insert your fishing line into your artificial bait. While holding the bait, make four loops around your fishing line. Bring bait through the loop. Lubricate your knot and pull tight.
