Tyler, this is one of the most challenging knots to learn. It is true that you will become better with more practice. What I did was to keep using the same hook over and over again and some garbage line to practice with until I felt confident in the knot that I was tying. I just kept cutting off the old knot. I have to say it is most satisfying when you can tie a clean looking one though.


Congrats on the Steelie - I am still looking to get one. Will keep plugging away.

FJ - 9 years huh? Same here. Just 'celebrated' couple of weeks ago.
