A popular
know among many anglers is the Improved Clinch Knot. This
knot is very easy to tie and can be used for connecting
monofilament to swivels, hooks, lures or terminal
tackle. This knot is most effective on lines
under 20-pound test.
Step
1 Simplypass the
line through the eye of the hook, swivel, or lure. Double
back and make five-six turns around the main line.
Then thread the tag end through the first loop
above the eye (Figure 1). Some
anglers loop the main line through the eye of the
hook or swivel twice for added strength.

up the coils being careful that the coils are in
a spiral, not overlapping each other. Pull
the knot tight against the end as shown in figure
