Forceps and Knots
 
Last year, I watched Warren whip through some knots using his forceps.
Very quick. Does anyone out there know of a webpage that shows this?


I have some pics with him losing all his fish because of those knots,
if you' like to see them g

It sounds as if it needs to be spit on/wet before pulling the know
tight...does it look like the leader is singed? It could also be a bad lot
of tippet, or just plain bad tippet.

How do you explain how many fish you broke off?

None broke at the knot, but I agree that Paul has a point. It
probably isn't the same point that he had in mind, but I explain it
as I caught soooo many more fish than he did, that I broke off a lot
more fish than he hooked just by sheer percentages alone. BSEG

A GOOD point and one I truly hadn t considered.... You were
certainly the" KING OF THE WHITIES " on that excursion! Kudos again!
After hooking so many Rocky Mountain Bone fish you ve got to
expect to break at least a couple off....



Poor Paul, if only he had been fishing large bead head prince
nymphs like you had he might had done as well..... You could have
given him at least one!.....

I also seem to remember catching the most trout that same day.
Whities were the majority of fish caught by all three of us though.
You lost the best fish of the day. :-(

I wasn't fishing Prince nymphs. It was EHC, Goddard Caddis, small
Stimulator and caddis pupa combos that worked best for me. I did
fish a small PT nymph for a dropper and caught quite a few fish off
that as well.
