Three fly fishing loop knots and their relative strength

This third knot tying newsletter shows the best knots to tie loops in the end of your leader, and just how strong each one is.

This month we focus on three knots that tie a loop in the end of a piece of line: The Perfection Loop, The Single/Double Surgeon Loop & The Bimini Twist. In addition, this video shows the correct way to make a loop-to-loop join.

RIO’s knot tying videos easily show you how to tie the majority of popular fly fishing knots. Each knot is tied in thick, easy to see material and demonstrated with clear, concise directions.

Each knot finishes with a laboratory test that breaks the knot under a controlled environment – illustrating the relevant strength of each knot.

All the knot videos are combined on a DVD called "Favorite Fly Fishing Knots". Get your copy here.
