    Default Loops

    Make your loops for leader attachment. http://www.flyfisherman.com/skills/erloops/index.html

    Ive used aqua seal, but that takes long. Double nail knots,drop of crazy glue then shrink wrap.

    also make overhand knot to make loops in mono.

    I use the Dan Blanton method but I make a loop on the reel end of my fly line big enough to go around my entire reel. This makes it much easier for me to change fly lines.

    The link keeps redirecting me to http://www.flyfisherman.com/how-to

    Anyone have a direct link to the article or can give me the title?
    Fly fishing is not only a method to catch fish, but a state of mind.
