How to tie A Bass Lure
How To Tie A Non-Slip Loop Knot (Quick, Easy, & Strong Fishing Knot)
Sharing buttons:
in this video you're gonna see exactly
how to tie the loop not that I believe
every angler who uses artificial lures
needs to know and at the end I'll
explain to you exactly why this knot has
proven to be better than the other loop
knots so first of all let's go ahead and
just tie it this is called the non-slip
loop knot the first step is really just
to not even focus on the lure but just
put a simple overhand loop in the line
and over in loop is just you know it's
basically just creating the most basic
of all loops on the line and to make it
as easy as possible I recommend having
about maybe four inches or so of tagging
going off here to the left so now at
this point we can go ahead and grab our
lure and thread the the line through the
eye and I just like to let blue or just
rest right up there against the knot as
far as the size you know this is how you
determine the size of your loop I like
to have it about you know at this point
a little bit a little bit smaller than
the size of like an M&M so so now we
need to thread the line through this
this loop and the proper way to do it is
if we look closely you can see that the
face you know the face on the left side
is aimed downward and then in the right
side the the face is pointing upwards
so we want to go through the downward
side so on the bottom when we're going
up we want to go through this left side
which is which has the face of that of
that loop facing down so we go straight
through it can pull it back up towards
the the eye the hook size it properly
and now we're going to just just hold it
into place with our with our left hand
so now we have our tag in heading out to
the right and our main line heading out
to the right as well so at this point we
we just get the tag in and wrap it
around the main line three to four times
I do three times for line two over 40
pounds and I'll do four wraps for four
lines under under 40 pounds so now we
have those wraps and as you can see that
are all going in the same direction
they're not overlapping one another
again very
not to overlap and so now we have this
tag in and we need to go back through
this loop and we're going to go from the
the right to the left this time we're
going we want to go through the upward
facing side on the one you're going back
down so you go right through that loop
just like slow and then start to pull
the the lines all tight together just do
finger tight right now now we're going
to go ahead and and wet the line so now
that the line is wet we're going to go
ahead and just cinch it down a little
bit more pulling on all strands and now
we're gonna let go of the tag end and
just hold on tight with the with the
main line and just pull as as far as you
can to cinch it all down you can see
that it's now it's now cinch down that
knot is complete final step is simply to
cut off the tag so what I really like
about this knot other than the fact that
it's very strong is that the tag in is
facing back towards the lure you can see
that tag end pointing it literally
straight backwards and the benefit of
that is that if you're fishing in an
area with like sea grass or other type
of floating degree on the water you know
the line is eventually gonna get it grab
it and it's going to go down the line
and if you're tagged in it is pointed if
it's pointed straight up or worse if
it's going it's going forward like back
towards the other main line that that
debris is gonna snag on that the tag end
of the knot and this one is a streamline
not tag is totally back toward the lure
it's not gonna snag onto weeds and
you're gonna be able to to have more
time fishing in less time getting
getting stuff off of your lure so if you
have not yet tried this knot out I
highly recommend it give it a shot right
now and I actually have a free pdf
download that you can you can print out
and just have with you whenever you need
it in case you you forget one of the
steps you can see clear directions on a
printable document I'll put a link down
below for that and if you want to see
exactly how this knot compares to other
similar knots like this we do have a
ranking of knots based on strength for
each line connection and each line type
so how do I recommend checking out it's
on our website you'll see a link for 4
knots that's it for now leave a question
down below
you have any otherwise I hope can get
down the water soon and catch the big
ones
