Tying perfect 2" hooklengths every time using a loop tyer

this simple process using a loop tyer means that you can easily tie rigs to the correct length for your rig sticks and boxes perfect everytime. Also at the end I show how to use a loop tyer using string, so it's easier to see on camera.

    What you need is a fly tying vice. Holds the hook in place and makes the whole process a LOT easier!

    I have one of those! It's like having a 3rd hand👌. And a gizmo zt pro hook tying station 😁. But I thought I would show it in a way anyone can do with minimal tackle 😊.

    Really good video and unedited which I like as these things aren’t easy. When would you use 2”, on a method feeder? I’ve only ever used 4”

  • @iangrabham692

    Thank you. I would use it when I think fish are picking up the hookBait and spitting it out before they come in contact with the weight of the feeder to set the hook. So on a 4" hooklength the fish has more movement and chance to feel the hook and spit in out before the slack is taken up. A 2" hooklength they suck the hookbait up and the slightest of movements and they are already in contact with the weight of the feeder. I would say 80% of the time a 4" hooklength is the best to use. But if there are points where you think the fish are eating the pellets off the feeder without actually getting any takes ( constant twiches on the tip, but no actual pickups) then try a 2" one and it can be night nad day difference 👌😁. Hope this makes sense. Any questions just ask 👍😊.

    What sort of size is the loop coming out when you do it len? I will have to measure the loop, but I think they come out about 8-10mm which is spot on for loop to loop on pole rigs, and will fit on most feeder quick change beads, unless you have really big ones.

    @@iangrabham692 lan hold the 2in hook link between ya finger and thumb down at the hook end. Then with your index finger on the same hand put it in the other end of the loop of the double line now. Place the double line over the back of the hook tyer and twist the tyer twice. Then the small loop left on ya finger place in between the two grooves on the tyer and pull tight on the hook link at the hook end. Your loop and knot is now almost done. With the tyer in one hand and the hook length in other hand, pull upwards on the hook link and it will slip off the tyer, leaving the loop still on the tyer, remove the loop from the peg and ya done. Takes a bit of practice to get it right every time.
