    Love me some huge flyfisherman vids..learned the nail knot finally(with a tool) and what a difference just in looks and running into the eyes of the poles. Goodluck with the giveaway!

  • @andrewmorgan3203
    @andrewmorgan3203 3 роки тому +1

    the alternative to the nail knot that i've found helps (especially when attaching a mono leader to a wire leader (for pike)) is the albright but i'll probably slash doing the whipped loop for my fly line to leader for the nail, good shtuff.

  • @dongrissom4540

  • @farmerbob4554
    @farmerbob4554 3 роки тому +1

    I’ve had loop to loop connections hang up on the top guide when using a long leader to land a fish. I like to use a nail knot with Loon knot sense.

  • @mickjelle
    @mickjelle 3 роки тому +5

    Said to myself why do I need this video? Because you’re absolutely right, I don’t carry a spare fly line. Also enjoy beer time even though it’s coffee time for me.

  • @triggernm
    @triggernm 3 роки тому

    Great tip! I just had my loop break on my sink tip line last October. And ya, now there is an ugly knot connecting my leader and fly line and I was thinking of a good permanent way to fix it. Now I know!

  • @tinoyb9294
    @tinoyb9294 3 роки тому

    You are just killing it lately! Really clean nail knot and right about the practice. Another trick is to roll the windings on a bench as you tighten but maybe your tool makes that unnecessary. You could call the ending segment the IPAlogue.

    Whipped loop on the back end of the line and then put a bimini twist in your backing with a loop big enough to get a spool through it. This creates an easy way to swap lines on a reel and a strong connection that still goes through the guides easily.

    Where was this video like two months ago when I had to nail knot a butt section to a fly line? Com' on, Man! Anyway, not having one of those fancy shmancy nail knot tools, I went with a nail and used a fly tying bobbin threader to pull the line through. Worked pretty slick. Recommendations for episodes: first aid kits to carry when fly fishing, snacks to carry, shoreline lunches, and recommendations on best fried chicken!

    Ben you should call our after video beer a - Post view brew. Poured one before I started the video so I could have one with you.
    Feel the same way about the skiing up here in Alberta this year. The lines are brutal when they usually never are because of the limited chair capacity, can't fill seats with single riders or mix groups.

  • @kevinjehl5529
    @kevinjehl5529 3 роки тому

    Does cutting the fly line hurt it’s floating ability? Do you use superglue or anything on the nail knot to stop the fly line from soaking up water? Thanks!

    How about a tour of your trout fly boxes? Make your "Best Dozen" flies the main subject. Take each one out, lay it down for the camera, tell us about it. If you tie the pattern or who does, and any good stories tied to it. I love that stuff! Could also do videos of bass, saltwater fly box.
    And thanks Ben for helping us all through covid!

    Another great video Huge. A couple of suggestions: 1) streamer video - streamer patterns for trout vs. salmon vs steelhead - including how to strip these patterns effectively (different retrieves?), I have had very little luck with streamers on WA,OR rivers and would really like to know why these fish dislike my meats . 2) Steelhead fishing - west coast - yes I know you said you did this once (spey fishing for steelhead) and it sucked but from what I have experienced thus far in the pacific north west steelhead fishing is all about suffering so please come join the fun. Or maybe do a video from BC where apparently there are WAY more steelhead because the Canadians eat less or something. Stay HUGE huge.

    "Just do the butt section." There's a joke in there somewhere. You can call the segment "The butt section" because the joke reference and since it is at the end of the videos and it's modified each time. See what I did there? No? Me neither...

    Have gone fishing with my friends and inevitably one will show up with there welded loop cracked and coming apart or some cluster F@#k knot . I have to do something , I hate looking at it so I cut the end off get out the magic nail knot tool and do exactly this 🪢. I’m amazed how many people think when the welded loop goes bad you need new line . Maybe the beer at the end should be your “Bieroutro” gives it a European flavor . 🍺
