This knot couldn't be any
simpler, it's quick and reliable. However the loop formed
is always slightly offset from the main line. No problem
for bottom fishing, but for trolling with light tackle
we would use either a Leader loop knot or a Perfection
loop knot. For heavy leaders use alloy or copper crimping
sleeve swaged with a quality swaging tool. Double over
6 - 8 inches of line. Make an overhand knot, make another.
Lubricate with saliva and pull up tight.
