Snelling A Hook #2 ( I like this one )

ICOT i can never see your pics.. and I dont know why. I can see everyone elses.

Whats wrong with a PALOMAR Icot ? Its all I use.

Nothing wrong with that knot, it's what I use when fishing soft plastics, "Texas Rigged"

Thats KNOT(snicker) all I use, but it does cover about 75 percent of it. I use the simple snell knot some and the double surgeons loop too.

The only knot I've ever used is the Improved Clinch.The one my Grandpa said use and have for last 35 yrs.

Palomar and Improved clinch are the two I use!

Don't know if y'all have seen this on TV, but they put knots head-to-head to see which ones are the strongest. They even have an app.

Adding this knot for future reference

That is a very cool link, appreciate you posting it.

Here's another link that's useful:

I can't either.

Hmmmm, you gotta unclick the "ignore" box

That is strange though

ICOT, how about some braid knots.

I always use Palomar for everything, including braid. Never have had a problem.

If I'd practice more with the snell I would use it for flipping with tubes, creature baits, etc. The snell flips the hook point into the roof of the mouth on the hook-set and has a much better hookup ratio. I'm just too lazy to practice it.

Improved Clinch is good. I use it for smaller lines with some finesse or panfish stuff.

Palomar has the best breaking strength with braided lines.

I also use a palomar for everything but flipping.

Clem, here's how I tie my snell knot to a flpiing hook with a bait keeper (trokar style): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFmNieom_dA

I've not had any problems with the Palomar while flipping, mainly because fish fear me, but I suspect learning the snell would help with the one or two badass bass that aren't poopin' on their anal fin when I come around.

Gotta learn the snell. Thanks for the vid link.
