Thanks a lot for the lesson! I haven’t fished in over 40 years and had forgotten how to attach a luee to a line, so this was a perfect lesson for a guy who hadn’t fished in such a long time. Once again Thanks
Yeah,you just made all of us better fisherman! thank you for teaching us this knot,i will use it from now on. On behalf of all fisherman. WE THANK YOU!
I use this knot when hanging my ultralight hammock. I attached rings to the ends of the hammock. So now I link the hammock to the line with a carabiner that's at the end of this knot. At the tree end, I use a trucker hitch. Since both cinch down stronger under tension, I know they won't fail & drop me to the ground. Just thought your viewers would like to know the Non-slip Loop is useful for more than fishing. 😉
@@theowenssailingdiary5239 Short answer: yes and yes. Longer answer: It depends on a few factors. • How permanent do you want things to be? If you expect to untie something, then sure, a bowline is probably a good choice. I don't plan on removing the rings because they are intended to be permanent anchor points. • What kind of load are you putting on the knot? The more load you put on a non-slip the harder it tightens down. The tighter the knot, the harder it is to untie it, maybe even requiring tools like a pick or pliers. • What kind of line are you using? The smaller the diameter, the harder it will be to get a good grasp to pull on. For example, my hammock rings use a 2mm thick dyneema line. And it bears a fairly notable load. Very difficult to untie, but doable in a pinch because dyneema has some slippery properties. It would be easier to just cut & re-tie. But I want it to be permanent, so no need. On the other hand, I also use this knot to hang my birdfeeders. There, I use 550 paracord. The line is thicker, the load is much lighter and I may need to undo the knot if the line breaks short. When I was throwing the line over the branch, I used a heavy object with a hoop and tied a non-slip to it. After the line was over the branch, I easily undid the non-slip. (And I didn't have to worry about the knot tail getting caught on the branch as I lowered the line down through the branches.) I still used the non-slip for the end of the rope hang because the feeders are fairly heavy and I don't want the knot to eventually give out. I attach the actual feeder to the knot via an S carabiner. By your user name it seems you're a sailor. You could use this knot on an anchor. If the anchor hooked hard on something and the load increased, this knot will bear down and won't come off the anchor. And the knot tail wouldn't get gummed up in reeds, etc. But if your rope is fairly thick, you could still untie it if you wanted to.
@@KimberlyGreen I thought you would be untying the rings when packing up is all. Not recommended for an anchor though. Sounds like you know your stuff. Enjoy!!
Important!! Its very important to not let go of the tag end tightening it down. Snug that up too! It should look like a nicely tied clinch knot jamming down against that overhand knot evenly touching and side by side. Nudge it down with your fingers if you need to. That is the foundation of a lot of its strength. Like the barrel part of a hangman's noose. Pulling the main line tightens the overhand, and pulling the tag tightens the clinch looking part. Great video! Sorry to preach but I didn't want anyone to lose a big one. Good luck folks!
Bro seriously thank you I was kayak fishing and pulled in a huge tarpon off a very light rod and reel he jumped and fought and this knot did not break loose the tarpon broke my jig head but the knot still held! Very strong knot people!
After feeding the tag end back through the loop I pull the main line ONLY, which snugs the knot into a position that maintains loop diameter. THEN pull the tag end to finish tightening the knot. And with 10-12# line two wraps of the tag work fine, keeping knot profile as small as possible. Great knot and the only one I ever use on artificial baits........Palomar for single hook rigs.
I now live near a large retention pond stocked with large mouth bass. I needed a great video on how to rig up crank baits and found your video the best! You spoke at a reasonable speed with made it easy to follow. So many people race through their video's and make it hard to follow.
Thank you so much! I used this knot all the time a few years back and I forgot how to tie it. This was always my favorite knot to tie. Thanks for the quick reminder!
Is there a loop or something I can make for lures that be easily used to switch out lures, without having to cut line and make new line for lure just a quick switch like with the hooks
Even though I have to watch the video every time to get this knot right, LOL, it is worth the time. I love the fact that the tag end faces backwards and the knot is very strong. Thank you so much for sharing.
Ok, I know I'm getting ready to freak all of you out, but I'm a older woman who tough herself how to fish. I'm doing great and catch 7 to 10 pound large mouth bass. Ok, hold on to something because I don't have the best eye sight and I never quite learned how to tie knots the correct way sooooo here it comes!!!! I tie everything with a regular knot, you know cross over then go under, repeat one more time and that's a knot!! I know sooner or later I'll learn how to tie knots like you guys use. For now I'm able to catch pretty good size large mouth bass so go ahead and blast me now. Just be kind, I'm a grandma of 12 .❤👍
@@LewisO-cw2fe I don't know if you're fishing with a bobber, but I've noticed that a lot of women do if so throw it away all you're going to catch with that is bluegill. If you want to catch big fish either fish the bottom or use top water lures. I've learned everything on RUclips! Just type how to catch large mouth bass and you'll be surprized how easy it is once someone breaks it down. It's time for spring spawning and that's the best fishing ever!! Goodluck!!!!!
Thanks Salt Strong. I'm into fishing but I don't have a dad, and none of the men in my life are into it as well. As a girl I felt like I could never ask anyone for help with this stuff because it was 'for boys', but some of your videos are so instructional and accessible. Just wanted to let you know that you made a difference. Have a good one.
That's great to hear! If you're interested, check out the Insider Membership as well...a lot of great information and additional benefits. And our Community of anglers is top notch and would love to help and offer any advice that you might need!
For fly fishers, tying this same non-slip loop knot knot to connect the fisher's fly to the end of the tippet has an added added benefit; it gives the fly 50% more lifelike action in the water, when compared to tying the same fly to the same tippet instead using an improved clinch knot. Knowledge is power: I am confident to say that this little change in knot strategy will translate directly to hooking and landing significantly more fish for the average weekend warrior out at his favourite lake or stream. Of course, the same is true for fishers casting or trolling live bait like herring plugs for salmon or artificial lures like spinners, spoons, or crankbaits for trout and bass.
if you don't pull the tag end so tight in the "pre-tightening" phase, you will find that the knot tightens up a lot neater. it is a very useful knot for sure. all the best man.
You have some really good information in our links. I do have a comment on your "Cons" for the FG knot. I have been fishing this knot for a long time now. One of my favorite set ups is 65 LBS braid with a 40 LBS Fluorocarbon leader. 40 LBS is the lightest that I will ever tie to the 65 LBS braid. So you can definitely tie the FG with the leader being lighter. With that being said, you have to tie a longer knot when doing this or you will have a failure or two. I have landed more than a few 100 pound halibut using this set up. Largest on this was just under 150# out of Seward AK. I will agree that you do not want to tie 100# braid to 20# mono or fluoro. But if you stay close with the tests and double the amount of hitches in the knot it out performs every knot I have run across. I wish the internet, and your links would have been around 35 or so years ago. It would have saved me so much time. Again GREAT INFO. Was looking at the haywire knot, have an upcoming Mexico trip and we just do not use Wire up here. Your video was the next in line. Just had to look at your links. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
It's the same non-slip knot I use for fly fishing lures to give them better action. This is a good refresher since I haven't gone fly fishing for 2 years. Good demonstration, easy to understand, but there are some people here confused who need clearer explanation about running the tag end back through the loop 2X. Very important when finished is that the tag end points downward towards the lure.
Great tutorial and easy to follow. Thanks guys! If not using a weedless lure I'd thing the tag end is the least of the problems with those big hooks collecting weeds, grass etc. But having the tag pointing back protects the knot from bumps etc and on a weedless setup fishing through weedy terrain would give you that little more protection. I love how this knot allows that little bit of extra movement at the lure end, especially if using a stiffer leader. Negates the need for an articulating lure clip.
Thank you! Always wantsed to learn how to tie a proper knot for the lurer. I've always just tied a normal knot and I know the lurer was performing bad in the water because of this. Thanks again!
Thanks for making time to leave the nice comment Peter! Glad to see that you enjoyed this loop knot lesson... it's still the best loop knot I've found so far.
The rapala knot is technically a slightly different knot... it has an extra movement at the end where the tag end goes up through another loop as shown in this video: ruclips.net/video/OmeEudIttCI/видео.html
Man I was goin out to fish today and realized I don’t have my dad or grandpa to help, and I’m not about to ask one of my buddies to help, so thank you!
It's a good knot for salmon fishing with lures like that. with pike musky or bass...might as well just snap swivel it. Good video. I use it for fly fishing with streamers.
Is a lot easier then tying a bimini twist double and slim beauty to the flurocarbon leader especially on a boat at sea- I am a convert for sure, see if it performs as well! Thanks for your effort here.
Amazing tip 🤩 I followed it step by step (left side right side) and cast out my lure maybe 20 times and it flew out into the river. (Maybe it’s not for braided line?) 👍🏼
He didn't cinch down the tag end. If you use braid you will need way more wraps around the main line and cinch down the tag end hard. Even then it might not work too well with braid.
Thanks for making time to leave the nice comment Warren! Here's a link to see an article we put together that shows the top knots ranked by strength for each line connection and line type in case you haven't yet seen it: www.saltstrong.com/articles/fishing-knots/
@@Saltstrong I'm an avid Bass Fisherman for both Largemouth and Smallmouth and usually use a Palamar Knot for darn near everything but I believe this Loop Knot will improve the action of topwater Frogs. Do you think it could be tied with Braid..?
@@Duschbag I would not trust this loop knot with braid because it would likely slip once under pressure. Also, given how limp and thin braid is, I wouldn't worry about making a loop knot if you tie directly to the frog because the water drag is so small that it wouldn't make much of a difference in the retrieve. Note: I recommend always using a mono/fluoro leader in between the braid and lure because fish can def see braid easier... especially when looking up towards the sky (hopefully you're at least matching the color of the braid to the sky).
I'm a nubie, 66 year old F, I have been out lake fishing with my husband and have caugh some good fish, but have fished only under my hubbies direction, I would like to learn more HOW TOO'S on my own, so I don't have to ask him what and how! ...lol Thank you for this video.
Maybe it's just me, but God Damn! I don't want to spend 4 minutes each time tying a knot! My go to knot is the uni knot. Love it or hate it, it has worked great for me over the years. Easy, strong and reliable. Case closed.
This will take 20 seconds max after a few goes. I know what you mean though. Do you lures REALLY get more movement/catch more fish with this knot? Use what you know.
Looking forward to trying it, will probably try it twice since usually fishing braid with a floro leader. One on the braid and one at the lure. The out going tide is a lot of salad in the east and I'm sure I miss a lot of fish with a dry hook while cleaning the cabbage from the hook.
I think it's easier to start your loop and inch or two away from the eyelet/wire nose. Then slide it down and adjust loop size after you've made the turns. The knot shouldn't look like that, it's sloppy. It should be closed up tight like a Palomar knot. It must be cinched down and closed up, that knot is loose. I've been tying this knot over 40 years and use it for many applications including 3-4 loop connections for a tapered fly leaders.
You've explained and instructed perfectly how to tie this knot. Five years later and you're still helping others like myself. Thank you!🙏
Glad we could help!

Thanks!
Man that is super easy. Great demonstration 🤘
Getting ready for the early morning fishing thanks for the vid hopefully I dont loose any this time🤫

Great video with an up close view. Couldn't ask for a better quality of video.
Thanks!
thank you so much! so easy and soooooo strong
I'm gonna use this knot for jerk and topwater lures
best and most simple tutorial on yt. tysm for this :)
That's great that the tag end won't catch grass but how about the hooks catching grass?
Is a lot easier then tying a bimini twist double and slim beauty to the flurocarbon leader especially on a boat at sea- I am a convert for sure, see if it performs as well! Thanks for your effort here.
When making leaders for muskie fishing can you use the loop knot as demonstrated instead of a snap? With thanks great instructions!
Instead of a snap swivel? A uni-uni knot might work best with those types of connections.

Thank you for the video and explanation. Keep up the good work!
I've been using this knot for decades. I've always known it as the rapala knot.
It's slightly different because this knot is weedless since the tag end ends up facing downwards towards the lure
@@Saltstrong missed that- thanks . I'll watch it again
Using smallest snap swivel is not a good idea to tying line directly to lure? I assume it will mess up action of lure? Easier to change lures..
Salt Strong
You Team are the Beast🏆🔥🎣😎 I'm a 40yrs++ fisherman and you got it Going on
Thanks for the kind words Cesar!
I ask a few questions and I haven't gotten my questions answer yet starting to give up on fishing man I'm soooooooo serious man
well explained and easy to follow thank you. I too like the tag facing backward
Caught my first fish with the method thx very much errand a sub
Pro : knots allows a little better natural movement to the lure.

Lost my jerkbait lure with a fish on ... going to use this knot tonight.
Thank you for the lesson. Lot of people have no common sense when they comment.
Thanks dude I hope this knot will help me not loose lures on speckled trout so much lmfaoo 🤣🤣🤣
Taught me so quickly thanks mate
Thank you so much
Looking forward to trying it, will probably try it twice since usually fishing braid with a floro leader.
One on the braid and one at the lure.
The out going tide is a lot of salad in the east and I'm sure I miss a lot of fish with a dry hook while cleaning the cabbage from the hook.
Superb knot and nicely demonstrated
just tried it and got it. thanks.
You guys already have a tutorial on how to tie this knot. With that being said this is an excellent knot, and I learned it from you guys.
This loop knot is so important that it needs 2 videos:)
well done
Thanks for watching!
I think it's easier to start your loop and inch or two away from the eyelet/wire nose. Then slide it down and adjust loop size after you've made the turns. The knot shouldn't look like that, it's sloppy. It should be closed up tight like a Palomar knot. It must be cinched down and closed up, that knot is loose. I've been tying this knot over 40 years and use it for many applications including 3-4 loop connections for a tapered fly leaders.
Thank you for sharing!
Loop, uni, and palomar and you're good to go. =) Thanks! Great jeorb.

Palomar has never failed me ever. Takes 5 seconds or less.
One minute or less
Two different purposes.

The Rapala Knot. Over 30 years ago when you bought one, the instructions used this same knot.
