Tying Stronger Knots With Leader and Tippet

go back

Any time you are tying a knot with your leader or tippet material it is important to remember to wet it with spit or water. This lubricates the line and does not let it burn or weaken itself when you tighten the knot. It is also important to remember to pull your knots slowly when tightening the knot. This will help protect the leader material and make a stronger knot so you do not break off the big one! Remember to always practice your knots before you go fishing so you will be ready to fish.
