Guys.
I watched for the first time yesterday an old video by Dave Harrell, wagger and stick float fishing, very good and still current. What interested me was he recommended a two turn water knot for the mainline to hook link. He said not only is it strong and small, you never get line twist like a loop to loop! This same knot I've seen use for shock leaders to main line, it such a small double loop it crazy good.
Now I've often used the four turn water knot when fly fishing, but never just two turns, a simple figure of eight knot. Has anyone else been using this knot for a long time and can feedback results? Rich.
