Step by Step.
Tie a double overhand knot in the heavy monofilament leader. |
|
Close the knot until it shows this figure of eight configuration. | |
Make a loop in the end of the monofilament main line and thread it through the figure of eight configuration as shown. |
|
Wind the monofilament loop down the heavy leader four times, then wind it back again. | |
Having made four wraps down and four wraps back, thread the remaining monofilament loop between the leader and the descending double strand. |
|
Tension the knot by pulling gently, but firmly, on both strands of the monofilament main line, against the heavier monofilament leader. Trim the tags and the join is complete. |
