Brilliance at its best, folks! Thank you for sharing this nugget of gold, sir!
👍
I think I figured out a better way, for me, to do your process. I just overlap the two pieces holding ends in either hand, and crank in the twists with a toothpick. Could be a wood match. Seems easier with the lighter lines, and I don't have to stage it between the fingers, I just grab ahold of it with both hands. Plus the toothpick keeps the hole in the middle open. Once both ends are through, I take it out. Good thing is that if I don't have a manipulator, no problem, just go back to your method.
I usually can’t find a manipulator when I’m out fishing👍
By the way, AZ Knot sounds like "easy". Seems appropriate.
I like it👍
AZ knot.
👍
So two other things bothered me about this approach. 1) it seems to waste a lot of material. But it turns out that if once the knot is formed, one holds it by the tag, and pulls on that tag's running line, the waste can be reduced to just the material that is required to seat the knot. ( and sure, I am probably the only person who cares about a few inches of line. It's Canada, and I never know where my next purchase of FF gear is going to come from...); This is a biggie. I figured that the real BK has the threads/winds in such a way that they look like a continuous wrap, it felt elegant and balanced and the only reason we are doing it this way is to make a pretty easy knot, easier. Well... After tying a half dozen knots, I think this one may lie better, in the heavy stuff, the barrel sides are straight through, and no bend, and the tags (they get cut off, of course) are straight through, not 185 on one side, and 175 on the other. I certainly don't see anything to worry about.
👍
Oh, there is one disadvantage with this method, you have equal amounts on both sides. Most people who use this knot to build leaders realize you get a better result with dissimilar weights of material, if you have fewer wraps on the heavy side. I have seen guides tie with one wrap on the heavy side, and two on the light. I never have a reason to join similar number of wraps, or equal weight of material. In theory you could slip a wrap, but it would be like playing cat's cradle.
👍
@@AZFlyShop I tied a few and I realized 3 new things, you know, 50 years since tying my first blood knot. You can easily reduce the turns on one side, so this is not problem. I can almost tie a regular knot as fast, but I can't. I will do the other two above.
Brilliant. However, go the full mile. You don't have a blood knot there. On a blood knot, the line does not reverse direction at the intersection, it is like a screw with one direction all the way. Your knot is left handed on one side, and right handed on the other. So if you invented this method, and it works just as well as a blood knot, you should name it after yourself, or your dog, and have the glory.
👍
Awesome shortcut but the strength comes from lubricating the knot. Stick it in your mouth for a second and it adds several pounds of breaking strength. Kudos!
Great idea👍
Chii chezz
👍
I use my forceps to tie this knot but never thought of using them to hold the hook while threading it. Excellent suggestion, thank you. A quick question. More times than not I’ll use the 16-20 knot over the clinch knot. I’ve never had any problems with either I simply like the size of the 16-20 plus the fact it clicks when tied properly as you cinch it down. What are your thoughts comparing the two knots? Thanks in advance. Wes
👍
Excellent! Thanks
👍
Music made me leave. .
Thank you👍
I have a Thomas and Thomas 6'6" 3wt. 2 pc. Lps rod that I absolutely love
Sweet rod👍
I don't know why I've never tried Winston...I've always loved them...gorgeous and I'm sure they cast as good as they always look
THE EASY AND FASTEST WAY TO TIE CLINCH KNOTS PUT FLY PUT ROCH CLIPS IE. (HEMOSTATS)ON BEND OF HOOK THREAD LINE THROUGH EYE OF HOOK PULL 5-6 IN. OF LINE PINCH STANDING AND WORKING END TOGETHER LET GO OF R-CLIPS SPIN THE CLIP WITH A FLICK OF A FINGER LIGHTLY AND COUNT HOW MANY WRAPS STOP.NOW LET GO OF STANDING LINE AND GIVE WORKING LINE A GOOD TUG (WHILE HOLDING HEMOS) TO OPEN THE LOOP AT THE EYE OF THE HOOK. MOISTEN KNOT TIGHTEN KNOT........U WILL NEVER TIE THE CLINCH KNOT ANY OTHER WAY... ESPECIALLY THE MIDGE SIZE HOOKS ! GOD BLESS CATCH AND RELEASE FLY FISHERS..........................................I GOT AHEAD OF MY SELF SHOULD HAVE WATCH ALL THE WAY THROUGH . I NEVER TOUCH MY FLIES. FROM BOX TO BEND OF HOOK TO JAWS OF CLIP TO TRIMMING TAG END. I HAVE 57 YRS F.FISHIN6 AND I CAN ALWAYS LEARN MORE............
Good method, for sure👍
I must admit…I’ve seen and attempted other ways of tying this knot & failed. This method, however, I have succeeded several times. Like you said it just takes practice and make sure there is plenty of line. Short lines will not work especially if one has big hands. Fortunately, I have small hands, so this method appears to be my choice. Thanks for the tutorial. 👍🏽
Thank you
Wow
Thank you👍
One of cool things is how relaxed you are. I have also hated tying this knot and to be honest I’ve never ran into a scenario wear I actually needed it but it’s a knot that bugged me since I was 28 and it’s time for it to shit it’s pants when it hears I’m coming. And now it does. I can’t tie it as fast as you guys but it’s tied correctly and it looks good and it’s never broken on me so I’m game! Thank you so much for this tutorial, I will look forward to seeing more!!!!!
Can you talk about what leader/tippet setup you're using, such as length and size of each? Thanks!
Yes
Thanks for sharing! 23:26

Got any stream recommendations?
Black River
@@AZFlyShop it's always the black river lmao
@@Hugh_Jassle it run a long ways, and holds lots of fish👍
What rod were you using out there please?
Winston Pure 6’6”, 3wt, with and Abel click reel. It’s a super sweet setup 👍
Referring to closed lakes.... Does that mean Reservation, Pacheta and drift fence are closed? And what for? Any info is appreciated, looked on the tribes website and I'm not finding anything. Heading up July 12th!
Reservation Lake is open, anything past the lake is closed. They closed due to fire danger.
@@AZFlyShop APPRECIATE YOU!
Idea why the zipper on the Simms is tough to close on those two points?
Shouldn’t be
Great video man. It takes a lot of skills to pull this one off for sure.
👍
You betcha!

Best explains thank you

Great video
Thanks!
Love this. Thank you so much!! Where are some good areas in the summer heat? Have tried west fork and near "the crack" but not much luck. Any suggestions for an Erie PA steelhead guy?
I spend most of my time in the White mountains of Arizona, during the summer. It’s the area around Mount Baldy, over 35 high elevation, lakes, and thousands of miles of streams.
Awesome video Congratulations on such an epic trip!!!

Do Tarpon fight harder than Trout?
Yes👍
Great job!
Thank you👍
Great video Chris!!
Thank you 👍 I hope you’re doing well.
Ain’t no body got time for this…..
That’s right
Thanks for the vids!
👍
This is a great practical tutorial on how to tie this knot, most demos of the structure dont actually show an easy way to manage the lines. Excellent video!
Thank you
👍
Hahahah! Love this!
😂
Very nice, Christmas tree lake is on my bucket list
It’s a great lake to fish
WOW. Thank you!
👍
I've been tying this knot going on 40 years and this is the best method I've encountered. Never had this much control over how long the tags end up being. Can't wait to build some new leaders. Thanks very much! Subscribed

Nice job on the camera and production work on this very well crafted adventure video 👍🙏
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it👍

Nice man! What are these guys chewin on? Doing a road trip down to AZ from Utah in a week, would love to get some tips/spots for fishing AZ!
Stop by the Shop, we’ll get you the info you need 👍
Going to be at Phantom Ranch in a couple days, and plan to fish Bright Angel with my tenkara rod. You mentioend wooly buggers and hopper droppers. I'm guessing Bright Angel would be the same? For the droppers, I'm thinking caddis and mayfly emergers? Also guessing small - 18 and smaller? Not sure if you'll see this before I leave...great video :)
I would take grass hopper patterns, for bright angel
