nike air max sneakers How to Tie a Palomar Knot Ea |
|
Moisten the knot and pull firmly on the main line and the tag end until the loop slides up past the eye of the hook and tightens.
Any angler who has ever tried to tie an improved clinch knot in fading daylight with cold, wet hands and a fly rod tucked under one arm can appreciate how difficult it can be – and how frustrating, when there is a hatch is coming off and the water is boiling all around with rising, hungry trout. The palomar knot was made for just such occasions. No matter how hamfisted an angler may be, knowing how to tie a palomar knot means speedy fly or lure changes.
Next, bring the end of the line back around and thread it through the eye of the hook again, back to front. Pull about half of the line through, so that a large loop forms on the back side of the hook.
First [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], thread the fishing line through the eye of the hook. Thread it from the front (barb side) toward the back, and pull about 12 inches of line through the eye. If preparing a drop-shot rig more extra line may be required [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but otherwise 12 inches should be plenty.
Now pinch the main line and the tag end between the thumb and forefinger of the left hand, and grasp the end of the loop between the thumb and forefinger of the right hand. The hook should now be dangling halfway between the two hands. Pass the loop in the right hand end over top of the line in the left hand. Wrap it around once to form a loose “granny knot”. Do not tighten.
Threading the Line and Creating the Loop
Moisten and Tighten the Knot
In most cases the next step is to clip off the tag end close to the knot. If drop-shotting, weight may now be added to the tag end so that the hook itself rides slightly off of bottom.

Carefully bring the hook or lure forward and through the loop.
The palomar knot is one of the strongest knots a fisherman can utilize, but it is the ease and speed with which it can be tied that make it a perennial favorite. An angler who has mastered the palomar will spend less time messing about with tackle [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and more time with lure or fly in the water. That, in turn, means more fish and more satisfying outings.
