    Default Power Pro loop knot


    What is a good loop knot to use in Power Pro? I used the triple over-hand loop and when I hung up the bottom jig and pulled it pulled the loop up against the main line like a drop-shot. Don't want that, will super glue stop this or do I need to use another knot?

    I use the knot they they show in the booklet with the line and another one where you form a loop around your fingers, the jig through that 3 times and then draw that tight. That one allows the jig to dance freely, and the knot is still strong.

    I like to double the line, put it through the eye, tie a loose overhand knot, the drop the bait through the loop at the end. Then just pull the bait tight. It will never slip.

    That's called a Palomar knot. I use it all the time with no problems.

    Here's another site for fishing knots. There is an easy loop knot on there I use. It's called the non slip loop knot or non slip mono knot.

    I think if you loop it one time to the main line and pull it tight against the other knots that this will stop it from pulling tight that is how I do it when pulling jigs and it works
