Habits are so hard to break.testflycarpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01438987908906957352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4843098604080162796.post-57570353744963675722012-12-06T15:13:33.436-08:002012-12-06T15:13:33.436-08:00Big fan of the non slip loop, I teach it in my beg...Big fan of the non slip loop, I teach it in my beginner fly fishing classes.

Vastly superior in strength compared to the clinch. Pretty easy too. testflycarpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01438987908906957352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4843098604080162796.post-41786542909074198012012-12-05T22:26:16.827-08:002012-12-05T22:26:16.827-08:00What are your thoughts on using a perfection loop ...What are your thoughts on using a perfection loop to tie in the fly? Do you know its reliability? It was recommended to me a while back but didn't know if it would be strong enough.

I certainly do not like lateral walk the dog action for carp for example.testflycarpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01438987908906957352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4843098604080162796.post-35913805903053454292012-12-01T12:35:25.545-08:002012-12-01T12:35:25.545-08:00That is cool McTage!

I'll revisit this though after seeing what you have done.<br /><br />GreggGregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02623587945737239141noreply@blogger.com
