Summary

The Knot Wars return but this time I want to focus on a single fortification to one of the most popular knots in fishing, the improved clinch. Does more turns mean a stronger knot? The answer might surprise you… It’s one thing to say one knot is better than the other but for the knot wars we test these knots head to head using the same line on a Next Tech ForceTester. The most important part of being a great angler is to control the controllable and their is no better example of that than properly preparing your tackle. If you want to learn how to tie the knots mentioned in this video plus 40 other knots check out the Tom Rowland Knot Course on Waypoint. https://waypointtv.com/tom-rowland-fishing-knots-course Learn more about your ad choices.
