Default Hook bend dropper knot

You can use an improved clinch knot on the bend. The easiest way is to tie
the knot before you put in on the bend and tighten it.

I prefer to tie the dropper onto the hook eye.


damn, steven, i thought *sure* i would get a rise out of you on my post,
supra.
losing my touch, i reckon.


No, you're not losing your "kooky uncle who will only tie one knot"
touch. You just accidentally picked a situation where the improved
clinch happens to be a suitable knot. ;-)
