How to Tie a Perfection Loop Knot | Fishing Knot 

Glad it helped!

Awesome! Glad it helped

Awesome! glad to hear it was helpful. How I've shown it, you can tie it in the dark.

@@KevinHospodar hahaha let's not get too far ahead of ourselves here. I have a little bit of practice to go to get that good.

Awesome! Glad it helped

Awesome! Glad it helped

keegan tate awesome! Hopefully the video was clear and easy to follow.

Happy to help!

Awesome. Glad it helped!

Thanks 👍

Glad it was helpful!

and yet when I do it the tag end is easy to resize the loop like a noose.

awesome! glad it helped

@@KevinHospodar hey I just noticed after doing that this knot plenty of times this will slip and fail with enough pressure? If you put saliva on the line and follow your exact steps it will slip with minimal pressure, so when the line is wet in water it will slip out?

nicholas kelly awesome! Glad it was a help.

Thanks for checking it out, and I'm glad it helped

bill dixon Thanks! Glad it was helpful.

thanks! There is a bit of a "feel" to tightening down the knot - I also made an updated version of the video here -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-idhu1CJ6nDg.html

Awesome! Glad it helped

Thanks!

No problem!

No problem 👍

Thanks for checking it out

In the video I was using 40lb big game. I use it down the 6lb.

between the 2 loops

@@KevinHospodar ok thanks

This is easy and just as good as the figure 8

I don’t use this for attaching lures … for that I use the non-slip mono loop. I have a video on that knot

Hey Eric - I redid the video here -> ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-idhu1CJ6nDg.html might be easier to see

@@KevinHospodar nailed it!

I don’t use perfection loops for attaching a fly… I use a non-slip mono loop for that

I'll look into it. Local shop just today advised me to use it. Thanks.

I use this for loops on the back end of a leader... I use a loop-to-loop handshake to connect

agreed

You’re right the line will slip through. But it you tie a overhand (even better with a double overhand) knot at the end first. The knot will stop the tag end slip though. This knot then becomes useful.

Then you're doing it wrong. Lol.

That REALLLLY helped!

I don't use this for attaching lures... rather for making a loop for a handshake connection

Try tying with a longer that usual tag, tighten down the knot to size then trim the tag. hope that helps

@@KevinHospodar thank you, looks like it's normal to slide that (Btw I am using braid). anyway i was trying to tie a flourocarbon leader with an albright knot through this loop. But found that double-oni knot is more reliable.

@@RazvanStefan not sure if braid might be causing the issue?

@@KevinHospodar it's the braid that is causing this, is very very very small. I have tried it already with heavier gauge line, it works just fine, so it's good that i wasn't stupid :))) picture this: tried this knot like 15 times and every single time encountered same problem....I was like WHAT THE HELL AM I DOING WRONG? but now is fine, I know how to tie perfection loop, double palomar, FG knot, albright knot, the rapala knot....so I learned some stuff last night in my quest to sort things out hahaha

Razvan Stefan glad you got it sorted!

You’re taking about a surgeon’s loop - it will come off the line tied at an angle… while a perfection loop will be straight in line

@@KevinHospodar Why not just make a loop, then make another loop. wrap it around your finger three times with first loop and pull through second loop? why not do that?

@@jimcarrey7006 you've lost me at this point

Lol thats a Spider Hitch. Its a great loop knot for multiple applications like tieing a leader onto it with a noname knot for great spring action with mono, however the loop would be super big when compared to perfection loop.

Glad it helped!
