Default Another question

@newsfe23.lga:

After receiving such a great response to my question on hand made
leaders I thought I'd ask another question: What knot do you use to tie
your fly to the leader? I have always used either an improved clinch or
a palomar knot, but it has been suggested that I use a turle knot or run
the line through the eye and tie a loop allowing the fly more natural
action.

Thanks in advance for all the responses!

Ed


I generally use and improved cinch, but I've also messed around with the
George Harvey knot for trout, and haven't had any trouble with it.
