Hey everyone, welcome back to our channel. Today I'd like to share with you a shortcut I use to quickly attach my flies to my leader using my forceps. Being up again takes a lot of time and the shortcut somewhat helps me get my flies in the water faster. I also find this useful during the whole month when it's hard to feel my line with my finger. So I hope it helps you too. I'll show you how to do it with the high-vis line first so you can see it better. Then we'll try it out with a natural tip. First thing you need to do is insert the line to the eye of the hook. Orientation doesn't matter as long as you end up with the main line and the tag end parallel to each other. Hold and pinch both lines leaving about an half an inch loop. Insert your forceps in the loop and start twisting the forceps around both lines. Do this for about 5 times, then grab the tag end with your forceps and pull it through the loop. Slowly tighten the loop while holding the tag end. Release the tag end, lubricate the knot and pull the fly away from the main line to cinch the knot. The key here is to pull quickly. You should end up with something like this. It's basically a shortcut to the clinch knot. Now let's try this with a tip it using the same steps we just did. Practice this one again and make sure to always test your knots before fishing them. Hope this helps you get your flies into water faster. If you want to see more fishing knots, check this next video. you
