  1. How to Tie Fishing Knots By: Michael Gardner ENGL393 - 6050 Due: 3 July 2008

  2. Introduction • This process is intended to instruct those that do not know how, to tie a few simple but useful knots. • These knots are primarily used for fishing, but can be adapted to a variety of other applications • In order to tie the knots, you will need rope, fishing line, or something similar, and something with a loop in it, such as a fishing hook.

  3. Dropper Loop Knot • A dropper loop is used to tie a loop in the line above the end of the line. This is used as an attachment point for an additional lure, weight, or hook.

  4. Dropper Loop 2 • Create a loop in the line.

  5. Dropper Loop 3 • Hold the lines where they cross each other and wrap the loop around the crossover point four to six times.

  6. Dropper Loop 4 • Open a hole in the twists where you are holding the lines. • Pass the loop through this hole.

  7. Dropper Loop 5 • Hold the loop with your teeth, and pull the knot tight.

  8. Palomar Knot • A palomar knot is used to attach a hook or lure to the end of the line. • With practice, this knot can be tied in the dark.

  9. Palomar Knot 2 • Form a loop in the end of the line and pass it through the hook eye.

  10. Palomar Knot 3 • Tie an overhand knot with the loop.

  11. Palomar Knot 4 • Pass the hook through the loop.

  12. Palomar Knot 5 • Pull the two ends to snug down the loop and tighten the knot.

  13. Improved Clinch Knot • An improved clinch knot is used to attach a hook or lure to the end of the line. • It is widely regarded as the fisherman’s reliable standby.

  14. Improved Clinch Knot 2 • Pass the end of the line through the hook eye.

  15. Improved Clinch 3 • Bring the end of the line back up and wrap it around the main line six times. • This creates a hole just above the hook eye.

  16. Improved Clinch 4 • Pass the tag end through the hole above the hook eye. • This creates another hole between the tag end and the main line.

  17. Improved Clinch 5 • Pass the tag end through the newly created hole.

  18. Improved Clinch 6 • Pull the tag end and the main line, cinching the knot down tightly on the hook eye.

  19. Tutorials, Video, and Instruction • There are many websites that offer instruction on knot tying.
