Jerome,

I am using the nail knot but I have not been fishing salmon/seatrout.

I use a thin tube isntead of a nail, because the knot is is easeir to
make with a tube.

For salmon / sea trout fishing, what connection would you recommend
between
fly line and leader to optimise solidity whilst ensuring optimum
transmission of energy between fly line and leader.?

I currently use a braided loop but would welcome suggestions?

Many thanks
Jerome

Hej Osmo,

Actually the only nail knots I did (recently to reattach backing to fly
line) where made with a tube. And the fact that the end tag can be threaded
through the tube is a real bonus
Thanks
