How to Tie a Snell Knot 

Have you ever wondered why the eyes of many hooks are slanted, making
them somewhat perpendicular to the shank? It’s to help a snell knot seat
properly. Unfortunately, snelling a hook is a bit of a lost art, especially since
you can easily grab a pack of pre-snelled hooks at any tackle shop. But that’s
limiting. What if you can’t find pre-snelled hooks in exactly the size you
want? What if you can but you need a longer leader than what’s in the
package? If you fish a lot of live and dead baits, you should know how to
snell, though I’ll be the first to admit, it takes practice and coordination.
