      @@TheBlunted247 so when you cut the loop, which I have you can’t change your butt section because of the nail knot as opposed to a loop to loop. I tie tapered leaders so depending on the fly I’m casting or the fish I’m fishing for I might want to change it. Then you have to cut the nail knot eat back at the taper in your fly line and re tie a nail knot. If you don’t like to to tie your own leaders it makes it even more of pain in the ass. They are exaggerating the impact the loop to loop connection has.

      This is one of the very reasons I fell in love with fly fishing and have devoted my life to it for the last few years;
      I am now a new fly fishing guide in jasper national park where exploring the rivers and streams.
      I tend to be a fast learner and get bored easy with many hobbies when I get to the point of stagnant learning….then lose interest soon after.
      Yet fly fishing never ceases to amaze me. Just SO many things to learn and refine every time I go.
      The community of amazing people around fly fishing is so supportive and helpful in passing on knowledge that I know I will never get tired of it.
      It gives me so much joy seeing people like yourself with more years fishing than I have living STILL in love with this sport and still learning. Shows this is easily a lifelong hobby/ pastime or in my case….career.
      Proves to me that I’ve chosen the right path. I can’t wait to learn as much as I can from the pros to pass on the torch to the generations following me!

    I've been using nail knots for 40 years and learned something new today-the Smell Knot. Love it! I noticed it's a nail knot without the tube. The need for the tube is replaced by overlapping the 2 ends of the butt section over the fly line and then pulling the butt section through the loop created. Ingenious! Somebody had a lot of time sitting around to think this one up. Keep up the great work!

    That may have been the most captivating Fly fishing video I have ever watched. Flips explanation on the transfer of energy into the leader was presented so logically that I found my head bobbing up and down in the yes motion through out. He left no doubt in my mind about cutting off the loop. I learned the snell knot. And also made my final conclusion about using high visibility line. Not because he explained it but because his name is on it.

    Brian is blessed to be friends with Flip Pallot, he is truly a living legend. This topic is old news.Brian has a tutorial on how to do this, which I learned from him, as well as how to whip a loop, thanks Brian.
    So I have a boatload of leaders tied up already using a micro swivel and a fly clip. Of course I have a Perfection loop on the butt section to attach to the fly line. A waste of time? I can't feel any resistance from the weight the loop creates when I cast. I'm certain Flip is right, however, not enough for me to change.

      @@JoelSzymczyk Flip claims a whipped loop is much stronger than the manufacturer's welded loop. He always cuts it off and nail knots directly to the fly line now. The claim is the line shoots faster with less resistance and a tighter loop.
      But now, he's evolved into an "Anti loopper!".
      A bodybuilder wants to build his bicep, he'll do a curling exercise. Now there are a hundred different designer exercises to build your biceps, but really net the same results. Perhaps, fly fisherman need this same stimulate to be relative today? If anything, it makes for great conversation .

Such nerdy little details but the way he breaks them down so easily speaks to how much of a wizard Flip really is

  • @kgm4368

    It’s difficult for old timer’s to embrace new technology. I’ve fly fished for over 55 years and since the welded loop was introduced years ago by Rio, Orvis, SA and others and leader manufacturers started producing their tapered leaders with perfection loops, I’ve never had one issue that would make me go back to the old technology. And I’m a traditionalist in that I still fish my split cane rods as well as my carbon graphite rods. But that’s what makes FF so wonderful. Do whatever makes you comfortable. If you think you can catch more fish doing it the hard way then that’s what you need to do.

      Could agree more! Obviously Mr. Pallot is a legend, but…. I’ve fished welded loops for a long time, never had a single problem. Streamers, dries, nymphs, from 2wt to 10wt, no issue and for the people who say it has to do with casting… well I’m no expert in physics but there is NO WAY it makes that “BIG” of a difference.

My poles are all rigged with loop-to-loop leader/fly line connections and every single one stops the line from going through that last 'ferrule' (?) and screwing up my casting. Now I know for sure and I get to fix all 3 of my poles' rigging. Lovely video! And marking each pole for the type of rigging and line weight is brilliant!

  • @mjt1229

    Been doing this for nearly twenty years... I bought a new spool & line at the shop I (eventually) wound up guiding for in Ketchum, ID, and when Dave F. (may he RIP) spooled it for me, he added a butt section. I bought a leader, cut off the loop and he showed me how to attach it to the butt section. My fly delivery improved significantly after that. I came, logically, to the conclusions that Flip discusses in this video.
    Other than the casting loop, the only loops in my line ever since have been non-slip loops and the occasional wind knot when I try something stupid.

    Fantastic knot. Seems to be a nail knot in the end, but much easier to tie. Instead of putting the tippet end on the leader through as the last step (traditional nail knot), you lay it alongside as the first step, and then it's easy to put it through and snug it up. My nail knots always screw up after I pull the tube out and then try to put the tippet end through the void. This is much easier and much quicker. Thanks so much.

Before watching this video I added a butt section (8" long) to fly line with nail knot and a loop at the other end for quick loop to loop to leader. I will stop doing that.

    Good Video; I have been experimenting with this for years.
    My conclusion is if the loop on the end of the line is small and strong, the line and leader turn over fine. The snell is so similar to a nail know that either would work fine. Like the leader building formula as I use it all the time.
    Agree with the factory loops are not strong. They are OK for small species of fish but not for the salt.

    Good info. I learned to remove the loop 30 some years ago, but always used a Nail Knot.
    My question is... Does the nail knot also seal off the flyline tip?
    I notice I have to dress or clean my fly line tip more then I like. Or is cleaning it every time I go out normal?
    Also - I tie a piece of mono onto the end of the Flyline about 8 or 10 inches long then attach leader to that so I don't really ever cut into my flylines.

    Love the knot. I enjoy using furled leaders though and wondering if you left the loop on the furled leader and then built this knot first, can you cut the loop off of the leader after the knot is built and secondly, can you "pull" the leader back through the knot? I am concerned the leader wont want to be pulled back through the snell due to the texture of the furled leader? Thanks
