    Default Favorite Loop Knot


    What is everybody's favorite loop knot for tying a hair jig to a line?

    Definitely easier and quicker than the loop knot I've been using. Thanks.

    Suck at knots saw one on u tube where you run line thru eye leave about 12 inches of line put both lines together and hold jig in first two fingers wrap both lines together three times around two fingers. Run jig thru pull tight. Pretty easy.

    Since most times I'm fishing hair in cold weather and water (and my old eyes have problems tying knots even when it's not cold!), I use a tiny, thin wire "Snap Hook" (Netcraft), to facilitate the "loop". Makes jig switching much easier as well.
