NAIL KNOT LOOP

Should you need to make a loop in the field, you can create a strong loop using just a nail knot. The only tool needed is a needle or a hollow tube. And, if you know how to make the nailless needle knot (see Practical Fishing Knots by Lefty Kreh and Mark Sosin), you don’t even need that. You also could use a Uni-knot.

Ed Russell has written articles on a variety of topics pertaining to fresh- and saltwater fly fishing. He lives in Fallston, Maryland.
