Fishing Knots

SURGEON LOOP

A versatile knot for tying line to hooks, swivels, etc.

Insert the line through the hook eye. Leave about 8 inches for tying the knot. Bring the line tag end back around the main line to form a loop.

Next, bring the end under the main part of the line and over the two parallel lines.

Now, the knot has formed a "figure 8." Put the tag end of the line under the two parallel strands, then back over all three lines.

The knot is finished by tucking the tag end between the main line and the front part of the loop. Pull tight and slide the knot down against the hook's eye and trim.
