    Incredible tutorial - calming and reassuring, Mr. Rogers could do no better and that's meant as a compliment. Watch this after a stressful day at work (super stressful day, add some bourbon) and you will be totally calm and relaxed at the end.

    For my nail knots, I always put on some kind of glue to strengthen the knot and help it run through the guides smother. It really helps me!

    • @michaelhazzard4901
      @michaelhazzard4901 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You should always test the kind of glue that you're planning to use on an old piece of line both of monofilament and the fly line and the backing to make sure that the glue does not melt any of the fishing lines as this will weaken the rig and cause a break off

      DH Being a jackass doesn’t make you look better or smarter. First negative comment I seen. For new fly fishing anglers this is a excellent tutorial but most people can spot a jerk without one.

    Thanks for cutting off the loops ! Fly fishers should unit at fly fishing is not to be rushed . Learn the important knots . Needle and nail knots are easy with a bit of practice . If your in such a rush to hit the water ……. Maybe give spin cast / bait casting a try .
