    Video Description...
    Tom Rowland shows how to tie the best loop knot for flyfishing for tarpon but it can be used for many applications. The Steve Huff Double Figure 8 knot hangs perfectly straight and pulls the fly perfectly straight. It is the very best loop knot for heavy mono or fluorocarbon to maintain a perfectly straight pull and strong connection.

    This looks amazingly similar to the grapevine or "double fishermans" knot used for rappelling and mountain climbing.
    I do love the free action!

      It is the same knot. Just a double fishermans loop. Really and excellent knot for this application. In a single configuration/termination it's known as a scaffold knot. Great vid too.

    That's what I've been looking for. Thank you for your videos.

    This is great knot! But why is it called a "figure 8" when it isn't a true figure 8? Just go look up figure 8 and you'll find plenty of videos. This creates confusion in definitions. but it's not the first time and there are knots that have been given numerous alias names.

    Why not a no slip uni knot? Should introduce that knot in one of these demonstrations

      Eric I do the Non Slip Mono loop. Great loop for lighter line but it kicks off to the side on tarpon leaders. Stand by for a video showing the diference

    Might as well just tie a spider hitch knot if you're gonna tie a knot like that. Perfection loop would be a much better choice

      The Perfection loop is a knot that I tie in this series. It does not pull straight like the Double figure 8 with 50-60 lb fluoro. This is what I use...if you like the perfection loop, use that...it is a strong knot as well
