The Blood knot is one of the best knots to secure 2 pieces of like size fishing line. It isn't an overly complicated knot. It is really just 2 clinch knots sliding into one another but to complete a blood knot can require a bit of dexterity and practice. Brian has a unique way of building the blood knot and it just may make it a bit easier for you.

"...this is the part of the blood knot where it really helps to have a third hand, I'm a fisherman so I use my mouth quite a bit." Truer words could not have been spoken.

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

Regardless of how it is tied, it takes practice to get the dexterity and muscle memory down pat for sure!

I think all of us can relate 😂😂😂

@sigurdurmarolafsson4183 4 месяца назад

@@mossycreekflyfishingespecially in early spring, you probably snap the first 5 before you get the hang of it. 😅😅

@robsnotes4u 4 месяца назад

That is the most simple way I have seen. Thank you. Most tricks do not make a blood knot.

@mathewcampbell8479 4 месяца назад

This works a treat. I taught myself this same hack about 40 years ago when my third hand got lost somewhere.

@StevenAxdorff 3 месяца назад

I never comment on these tutorials, and I have WATCHED a ton of them... Best one I have seen on the blood knot, and I have used it Steelhead fishing a lot. GREAT knot. lifesaver video. Thank you "Mossy Creek Fly Fishing " man.

Nice trick for tying a frustrating knot Brian! Gonna use it from now on.

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

You bet!

@robbieh.9435 4 месяца назад

Thanks for demonstrating this I now realize that after 30 or more years someone once taught me how to tie a blood knot this way.

@duncancourtney991 4 месяца назад

Great hack - love it. Also looks like a great way to tie tippet sections to specific lengths. That’s a constant source of frustration for me. It’d be great to see a video demonstrating that!

@jtahoe5672 4 месяца назад

Terrific! I've always struggled to tie a blood knot. My mind knows perfectly well what to do but my fingers can't always seem to follow. I've watched several videos on YT, all pretty good at making the blood easier to tie. Your method seems to me to be the easiest to both remember and execute. Thanks for that!

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

We hope it works out well for you. Of course with smaller sized tippet that is more challenging to see it will still take some practice.

@allentucker6116 4 месяца назад

Thank you! I have sensitivity issues in my hands and I can tie the blood knot using this method with no issues.

@koogle612 4 месяца назад

Clever to fold the wraps over themselves. My Captain showed me the original way which has always been awkward. Thx!

@jonhart-dj7fn 2 месяца назад

excellent method practicing this all rainy day!

Creating and maintaining a target tag insert loop is the hardest part of the knot for me, closely followed by seating the knot without losing it.

@1MattFugazzi 4 месяца назад

I would have thought most people without a toothpick or something inserted for that loop, would be tying this method. used it for years but went to double surgeons for cold weather/water since it just as strong , much simpler and reallly not that bulky…good demonstration of the blood knot here

The next time I tie a blood knot I'll try your method, with my shaky hands I have difficulty tying the knot I have been using.

@mdaley3102 4 месяца назад

WOW is that simplified, I’m definitely trying that. One question: when you overlap to form the big loop, does in make a difference if you go under or over the line your holding in your left hand.

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

It doesn't matter if you form the loop going over or under, but when you are putting your tag ends through the loop you create, be mindful not to unwrap a tag. Hope this makes sense and is helpful.

I like it. Will definitely give it a try

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

Please do!

@skorflyfishing 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the demo! What do you do if you want more wraps on one side due to differences in diameter of the two lines that you are tying together? I assume that you pull the loop out from a different place. Have you tried this?

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

You can certainly look and count wraps. If tying 3x to 4x and you want 1 or 2 extra wraps on the smaller sized tippet you can offset the loop you form by a few wraps for sure.

@jerryg957 4 месяца назад

Interesting, going to try that, thanks for posting.

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

You are most welcome.

@christopherball9227 4 месяца назад

Does it matter which line you make the opening in (you used yellow one) but if I had, say braid on one side and fluoro on the other, would the opening be with the braid?

@mossycreekflyfishing 4 месяца назад

When you form the loop and you start to try and tease out the loop usually the one on top pulls up, it won't really matter you just want to try to grab in the center so the number of wraps on each side will be symmetrical. Generally you want a wrap or 2 more on the side with smaller diameter tippet but if you are using like size/same size tippet it will be strong if its off by 1 or 2 wraps.

I was taught this same way while in college. That was over 40 years ago. Funny how generations repeat the same things that were done generations ago and think they found something. Not just in fishing.
