Not all knots are created equal — and learning a few reliable ones can make every trip on the water smoother. 🪢

Here are a few every angler should know:
🎣 Improved Clinch Knot – Simple and strong for tying hooks, swivels, and lures.
🪢 Palomar Knot – A go-to for braided line; small, compact, and nearly unbreakable.
🌊 Loop Knot – Perfect when you want your bait to move naturally and freely.
⚓ Uni Knot – A true all-purpose knot that can handle just about anything.

The more you practice, the more second-nature it becomes — and it’s one of those small skills that turns beginners into confident anglers.

We had quite the feeding window today on the Chip. These 3 were caught within 10 casts of each other and maybe a couple minutes of actual fishing time.
2 on bucktail and 1 on a Big Game minnow bait.
