Rapala
loop knot :
:
Recommended by the maker of the well known lure, this knot
makes also a strong loop .( To attach a lure, you pass
the tag end BL in the eye and keep tying the knot.).

 |
Make an overhand knot, you create loop A.
Pass the tag end BL in loop A and make 3 turns around
the Standing Line BF.
|
|
 |
Pass the tag end BL in loop A then in the loop C which you have
just created.
|
|

Lubricate and draw gently on the tag end to tighten the knot.
Trim the Tag End.
Contrary
to the Duncan loop, the Rapala loop cannot be
adjusted, the knot don't slip

Loop
in loop knot: To
connect the fly line with a leader

Pass loop A in loop
B. Then the Tag end of loop B in loop A.
.

Pull slowly to engage
the two loops one in the other, help with your fingers to
pass the knots through.
Keep pulling to
tighten the joint
Right, what one should not do:
pass loop B in loop A, then its TE in loop B.
The loop B is folded up on itself, source of
weakness.
