SIMPLE CLINCH KNOT


Probably the most often used knot in fishing, it is a strong and easy knot to tie and it is ideal for attaching line and leaders to swivels and hooks.

Put about 6 inches of the line through the hook's eye. Wrap the tag end back down around the line six times. Put the end through the opening directly about the hook's eye.

Pull the knot tight. On heavier leaders, you will need to slide the knot down using your fingers.

The knot should slide tight over the hooks eye and should not be wrapped over the top of itself.
