Nymph rig
#11
Steve, I use a Davy Knot to tie on the fly. It's simple, quick, strong, and (most important) uses VERY little tippet. It uses up as little as half an inch of tippet material, whereas a clinch knot uses up twice that much. Changing flies can shorten a tippet to uselessness in no time with clinch knots. I can get three or four fly changes on a six-inch dropper with the Davy before I have to change droppers. I use back to back uni-knots to connect tippet to leader.

Here's a great website with animated knot lessons: http://www.netknots.com/fishing_knots/
