Knot Tying

Knots are one of the most important aspects of fly fishing.  There are books amoung books written about the many different knots but only a few are needed on a regular basis.  The clinch knot is one of the best knots for tying the fly to the leader.  It involves passing the tippett end through the eye of the hook then around the standing part of the leader six of seven times then back through the loop created at the eye.  I find that it is useful for any fishing situation and one that every angler should know!
