Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

I was using the double loop Trilene knot but a pain in the ass to tie.

Never ever had a hook come off but by the time I got done tying it was time to go home.

Thanks 4thIDvet, I just bought two of them. One for me and one for my ladyfriend that loves to fish. I too spend intirely too much time fooling around trying to tie a hook to a line.

I started out using the clinch knot but found that the palomar knot was faster and stronger. It's all I use now.

I try when I have to sew, but I only have one and a half eyes, and my depth perception sucks. Needle threaders barely help.

I thought of it after I saw this. I just switch from sunglasses to reading glasses when I need to tie a hook.

I'm gonna teach that to my granddaughter when she comes this summer. She loves to fish and lose hooks. She is old enough now to safely replace them by herself.

Thanks for the tip.

Depends on the line I"m using as to what knot. I use Improved Clinch, Palomar, and Snell Knots.

That is a handy gadget for a windy day. And it would be even better for ice fishing.

I might have to order a couple.

Nah, I don't do a lot of fishing anymore and If I go on my son's boat it's for big game using the outriggers and large hook/bait/line. Thanks for the offer. The way my back is lately I don't even want to put up with a 30 mile boat trip to get out there.
