Braided Nylon Loops?

[SC_flyguy]

Stay away from the braided nylon loops...I wouldnt trust that type of connection. Nailknot or internal Nail works very well..Some ppl use a nail to tie the knot. I like to use a folded out paperclip...or the inside part of a ink pen.....When ive been in a bind Ive used a small twig from a bush LOL. After working in flyshops and tying thousands of nail knots..I can do it with my eyes closed! It might not be a bad idea to keep one of the braided loops in you flyvest for a temp fix. As far as whipping a loop in your flyline..I use this..but mainly for saltwater...because when done right its a very strong connection
