The Rapid Clinch Knot
« on: February 24, 2011, 07:07:04 PM »

Thought I'd share another one of my knot tying demonstrations with all of you. This one's a great technique for cold weather angling (numb fingers) and for those who have poor finger dexterity.

Keep in mind that any tactic that could potentially save you a few extra seconds while changing flies can really add up over a long day of fishing...

My Grandfather often tied clinch knots this way, especially in his later years when arthritis became a pressing issue.  Thanks for sharing.
