sorry about that, didn't know I hit a sore subject, is there an FAQ
that you could lead me to read about this?


Ken's probably referring to this thread just discussed yesterday:

You're just lucky that Ken is such a patient man. ;-)

Yes, I read,
The knots I know how to tie, and I never use the loops, I cut them
off.
I was wondering if there's a difference in the way the fly is
presented with loop leaders


No offense intended, Tom, but you should take a little more time to ask
the question you want answered. There was nothing in your original post
indicating you were asking about fly presentation.

That said, doing a Google search in roff for "loop leader fly

Woops, I have a habit of thinking the experts know what I'm asking.
Dave LaCourse did answer my question, and I will continue to use the nail
knot as well.
The hinge effect was what I wanted to ask, but didn't know the correct term
to use.
Thanks Dave, very good description.
