A New Fishing Knot – The Catspaw and New Uni knot Combination

admin — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 23:04:01 +0000

This is a really strong way of permanently tying a fish hook, clip or swivel to a fishing line. Because the knot sets securely it does not weaken as much as many other Fishing Knots when put under repeated stress. Paul’s Fishing Kites use this knot for attaching the kite clip to the end of their kite lines on their fishing kite kits.

admin — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 11:45:58 +0000

please give me the best knot for connecting two lines…
the same and different types of line…….

depends on the sizes of the line your trying to join. If they are not the same size rty an albright. If they are both close to the same a bloodknot is your best bet. Both hold fast. You will need to trim the extra line left after. try this website…. http://www.troutlet.com I think they have an animated step by step page.

i am a kid no one i no fly fishes and all i have is some book that says how to do it but its no help i still cant do it if any one has a better knot or a good startigy please tell my

i assume you mean to add backing to your fly line before loading it onto your reel well you could try ani,mated knots or even better try kilroys alos a good tip is once your done add a drop of super glue which will help if your knot if it is a little weak

http://www.killroys.com/knots/nail.htm

ps if you intend to use thisto connect your tippet to the fly line,Dont its too hard to change every time you need to change the leader instead use braided loops which are easy to attach.
also you might need this

http://www.killroys.com/knots/backing.htm

to start with the fly line that is handy for beginners to learn with is a weight forward 7 get it in floating and in intermmediate.
For tippet material nothing beats airflo sight free G3 flourocarbon of about 7lb for most still waters.
some useful equipment

Does reinforcing fishing knots with superglue make them stronger?

admin — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 04:58:11 +0000

I’ve heard this before, but is it entirely true?

Don’t get caught using it, some places frown on people throwing chemicals into the water.

Also, just go to Http://www.animatedknots.com and figure out how to tie one that won’t come undone. The more bulk that is on your line/knot, the less likely you are to catch something as fish often become "aware" of the line/knot.

Good luck.

I want a list of 5 popular artificial lures/baits for fishing for redfish, trout, or flounder?

admin — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 11:25:05 +0000

I live in coastal South Carolina and looking to get a hand up on these big fish that are running right now. I am looking at all water depths and trying not to worry too much about water clarity. Also, I need a valid website for Fishing Knots, please.

Flounder Catching’
Don’t know if it will help, but flounder are both scent and sight feeders. Yes, you can catch them on artificial. The water must be in decent shape and you have to let them "have the bait" for a few seconds before setting; the hook. My fave artificial baits for flounder include 1) Triple Chance spoon, gold, 1/4 oz. You cannot fish this in the wind. Has to be still or with the wind. 2) Small yellow twin-tail plastics (Any color may do but rig it on a 1/8 oz jig head, 1/4 if having difficulty casting). 3) Live shrimp and/or MudMinnows (don’t know what these are called on the East Coast) will also work. Think about how a flounder strikes. She sits on the bottom waiting on an ambush. Your bait must be worked within distance and the flounder will rise up, gather the bait in their narrow, toothy mouth and will not take it in until they settle back to the bottom. I do not pursue them as much these days but that is how we used to do it. Slow everything down. Their are also "runs" in the spring and fall down here. Always triggered by changes in water temp. The fall run is the best.
the D.O.A. shrimp are the best artificial lures for speckled trout and redfish
Here is more info-My first choice on jigs is a red head, quarter ounce jig coupled white grub tail. This is a good all around bait for either species. This rig when spiced up with a small piece of dead shrimp on the hook is extremely effective. It can be worked in water as deep as five to six feet or as shallow as twelve inches. However, to fish this rig in twelve inches, you will have to increase the rate of your retrieve to keep the bait from snagging on the bottom. There are a number of jigs that are available that are rigged weedless. Besides the basic white, it’s always good to have a couple of other colored tails available, such as pink, yellow, green, smoke and root beer. I have found that when the water is clouded, yellow tends to produce better than white. I recommend to switch colors as water clarity and conditions change. While we are on the subject of plastic baits, there are a number of good alternatives available on the market. These include soft jerk baits and look-a-likes such as shrimp, small bait fish and crabs. There is one distinctive advantage to using jerk baits such as the Berkely Power Baits, they can be rigged totally weedless. And for those of us who haven’t mastered the art of pin point casting, this is a major plus. Also, don’t forget the bucktail jigs. Bagley and Key Largo baits produce some fantastic bucktail jigs. One of my favorites is a brown flathead jig that is rigged weedless that has the appearance of a small crab or shrimp. We recently used this jig while filming a show and produced a number of redfish. In fact, the guide couldn’t believe that the redfish ate these jigs and wouldn’t touch a live shrimp. Anyway, I could probably spent the next year talking about jigs, but let’s move along.
