    Why does a clinch knot slip?

  • @Fishingknotsfast
    @Fishingknotsfast17 күн бұрын

    Because it’s just a loop holding bits of tag against the hook eye . Frequent back pressure that may open up the loop ever so slightly and BaM! Slippage

  • @Fishingknotsfast
    @Fishingknotsfast23 күн бұрын

    That is kinda true but it can be challenging to tie correctly with very light fishing lines (typically under 10-pound test), as the knot may slip or fail if not meticulously secured. Additionally, the knot creates a relatively large profile compared to some alternatives, which might be a concern when a more streamlined presentation is desired, particularly in clear water or when targeting cautious fish.

We are demonstrating what happens with time even a longer tag it will slowly slip with time .. and the challenge is with longer tag it’s prone to tangling in weeds and in the case of finicky fishes they feel the sharp tags in turn spooking them … just my thoughts .. and thank you for your comment!

    That's a very interesting way to tie a snell. What I've done for years is use a tiny little drop of superglue on the tag.

  • @Fishingknotsfast
    @FishingknotsfastАй бұрын

    Thanks so much for your comment and for watching our videos !! Yes super glue has been a long time approach to lock the knots but depending on the chemistry of the glue typically Cyanoacrylates they hold but being exothermic reactions it may weaken the line plus making the line less elastic and can break under sudden strain , most deteriorate in saltwater over time .. but if we change rigs often it wouldn’t matter

  • @Elrond_Hubbard1

    @Fishingknotsfast And all this time, I thought I had an original idea! 😆 Even though I've been fishing for forty years, I don't research much. Obviously. I use heavy mono leaders with large hooks for flats, and lately, I've ditched the glue for a small, heated screwdriver. I melt the tag to a nice molten ball and press it against the shank. You know how it is. Half the fun of fishing is experimenting. I always make a couple dozen rigs at a time, so it's not too inconvenient.

    You know. I don't think you have to even melt a monofiliment line tag anyhow. The long and short of it is, does it break faster using a knot that holds on with a single strand of line. Does it break faster holding on under the wrap of this knot on the shaft of the hook? At least that's where my mind goes. 2 likes for this science video.

    Is it just me or did anyone else notice he did not pull the first snell tight against the eye like the improved snell? I tie my snells at home and use a pulling pin built into my bench to pull everything tight no matter what hook. I can see where the improved would be a darling to tie on a short treble. I'll stick to the way I know that works for me. Just my 2 cents.

  • @Fishingknotsfast
    @FishingknotsfastАй бұрын

    Thank you for your comment and for sharing your technique! You’re right, in the video, we didn't pull the first Snell tight against the eye like the improved Snell. This was intentional to demonstrate the potential pitfalls and common mistakes anglers can make. Even if the first Snell is pulled tight initially, over time, similar failures can occur due to the rough edges of the hook eye, especially under the stress of fighting a large fish. Our goal with this video was to illustrate these potential issues and to show why the improved Snell knot can be more reliable in the long run. It's great to hear that you have a method that works well for you, and using a pulling pin sounds like a very effective technique! Thanks again for your input and for watching our video.

The best time for crabbing is from October to January, this is when the crabs are often largest and populations are at the peak after spawning, They come in through the entrance during the flood tide and best time to catch them is 1-2 hours after high tide, once the current in the channel dies down a bit. Use chicken carcass or necks … some swear by a few dashes of fish sauce …

    Thanks for watching and for your feedback! Winding the line towards the eye of the fishing hook can create a slightly different knot structure. Some anglers prefer this method because they believe it provides better knot strength and security, particularly when using certain types of hooks or fishing techniques. However, the difference in performance between winding towards or away from the eye is generally minimal and subjective, so it ultimately comes down to personal preference I would say ..

I fish a lot for trout and I prefer the two hook set up and I want each hook facing away so I can get a bite regardless of which side they may swipe from. The problem I am having is trying to be consistent with keeping the two hook about a 1/4" apart.
