This video will teach you how to tie possibly the easiest fishing loop knot for certain situations, the Surgeon's Loop Knot! This knot can be used any time your tackle needs action or movement to work properly, and this video will show you the tricks to tie it quickly and effectively! We will also go over how learning this knot will teach you how to tie your leader or tippet onto your main line! This is one of the most widely used fishing knots which is easy/fast to tie and can be used to catch anything from trout, perch, panfish, bluegill, largemouth or smallmouth bass, northern pike, walleye, muskie, salmon, red snapper, tuna, grouper, red and black drum, sheepshead, trigger fish, mackerel... basically anything you catch with a hook can be caught using this knot! Subscribe for more knots and tips, and thanks for watching!
Quick disclaimer: This is but one of many methods to successfully tie this knot, and it happens to be the best one I have found! I hope it works equally well for you, but if it doesn't, or if you have found something else that works better, I encourage you to stick to what works for you! I would always recommend practicing knots and testing their strength yourself to ensure you are comfortable with how they work, and to avoid flinging lures into the ocean on a failed knot (ask me how I know!). Knots take practice, so make sure you're comfortable with whatever you're tying prior to trusting it with your gear! If you have any questions about the knot, please post them below and I will do my best to answer them. I hope this is helpful, and tight lines!

Have you used this knot before? For me, it's easier to tie than the Kreh or Perfection Loop Knots, but I tie those for different reasons. Let me know what you use this knot for, or if you're just now learning it, let me know what you think!

I use this knot, second example to tie my Sabiki rigs; but I use a triple surgeon. When pulled tight, it stands perpendicular to the main line almost like a dropper loop. Very easy.

Is this knot also viable for a thicker rope? Like a 2/3 cm thick strong synthetic rope? The reason i'm asking is that i need to attach a fitness type grip at each end of this rope and use it as a make shift cable attachement.

@@pablieto-vegansonI think it should work fine for that, but I would definitely test its strength in a safe way though before using it in any way that can hurt you or someone else! I haven’t used it for that type of application!
Very helpful. Great information. Awesome presentation and explanation SLOWLY explaining every single movement. I now have more confidence to TRY AGAIN. MUCH APPRECIATED

Do you have a knot that's a bit weaker? I'm looking for a "snag" knot. A knot that will hold until a lot of pull/pressure is applied, then it comes loose, or slips out. This would be great for when the sinker/hook gets caught somewhere. Thanks!

This is a great question. What kind of rig are you tying? And does it have to be a loop knot?

@@JustTheLip Doesn't have to be a loop knot. Any knot that will slip when a lot of tension is applied. I'm using a standard Drop Shot Rig. I've tried single overhand knot which is too loose, a double overhand might be a little loose also, a triple overhand is too tight and wont slip.

I might just stick with a double overhand. Short of using a swivel or tying a double uni knot to much lighter line and then connecting the weight, that may be your best option… but you could always try to get creative with your rigging!

Awesome! I think it’s about as fast as they get!
If you're setting up the gear for the following day, would it be beneficial to run a dab of super glue on the knot? Great video!
Only change I'd make is not leaving that loop gap above the hook eye. That just becomes one more spot for a fin or a tooth, coral or whatever you get snagged on and put stress on that line. Splitting hairs? Maybe, but after decades of offshore Gulf fishing, I've seen it all. It's like there are magicians down there, and if you have a weakness, it will eventually get exploited.

If you’re avoiding gaps, I would just use a regular knot instead of loop knots! My preference is the uni knot in those situations! 🤙🤙
Silliness bro.

What do you mean?
It's not gross when you're fishin.
Still misleading bc your right handed leading to the rod with the shorter tag end. I get it but not everyone will with out verbal direction as well.
Keep the words out of the video. Very distracting.
