Second question for the morning,
For those that have the movie, or remember it well, in the very
beginning and at the very end of "A River Runs Through It", you see 2 hands
tying on a dry fly. I have rewound this so many times trying to figure out
the knot. It looks almost like he threads the leader through the eye, ties
an overhand knot then passes the fly through a loop in the knot and pulls it
tight. I have looked at my encyclopedia, on the web and still cannot find
this knot. Is it a real knot ? If so, what is it called and how do you tie
it? My "Improved Clinch Knots" seam to limit the action of the fly and am
looking for various options.
Second, on tying on a dropper. How do most folks do it ? 1 Leave a long
tag line on the upper fly and tie the dropper off to the end of it ? Tie
some sort of knot to the bend of the hook and then the dropper ? Tie the
dropper on first then make a loop knot of some sort to tie on the upper fly
?What kind of knots ?
So many questions, so little sleep and time...
