Trying to learn new knots can be one of the most frustrating steps in an angler’s development. But there are definitely times that the right knot tied well can make the difference between a sweet shot of a huge fish or the dreaded long distance release. Even the most experienced fishers don’t know every knot or can use a refresher sometimes if they don’t use a certain knot much.
The animated knots site is a good resource for anglers of all ability levels. It gives step by step instructions on how to tie some of the most important knots out there. It isn’t the most glamorous aspect of fishing but ranks up there as one of the most important. The greatest fly rod and nicest line won’t be able to do their job without a few good knots!
