This knot is also called the non-slip knot. It’s a tight knot, and it doesn’t snag on weeds when fishing because the tag end of the line faces down towards the hook.
When choosing where to push the thread through, pick the side that’s facing slightly downward toward the end of the thread.
This time, push it through the side of the loop that’s facing slightly upward toward the rest of the thread.
To adjust the loop, pull on the end of the thread to make the loop smaller. Pull on the main part of the line to make the loop bigger.
You’ll need to leave enough room at the end of the line to make another loop, so leave at least 1 to 2 inches (2. 5 to 5. 1 cm).
If you want to add a hook, thread it onto the second loop before you pass the end of the line underneath the main line.
Be careful not to stab yourself if you’ve added a hook to the line.
The second loop becomes the main loop of the knot.
Add the hook to the line now, keeping it at the bottom of the loop you just made. Be sure to leave at least 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 cm) to tie the knot.
The loop you’ve been using as the “end” of the line now becomes the main loop.
