The Perfection Loop knot is the perfect knot for the leader
butt section when attaching fly lines to leaders with a loop
to loop connection.
Although the illustrations seem complicated, the knot is
a breeze to tie.
Step 1
With the standing end in your left hand and the tag end in
your right form a loop. Make sure the tag end is behind the
standing end. Hold the lines in place by pinching with your
thumb and index finger.
Step 2
With the lines pinched in your left hand make a loop in front
of the first loop with the tag end. Again, make sure the tag
end exits behind both loops.
Step 3
Pass the tag end between the 2 loops, continuing to pinch
all lines with the left hand.
Step 4
Pass the loop closest to you over the tag end and through
the rear loop.
Step 5
As with all knots, lubricate before tightening. Pull the loop
(the one passed through the rear loop) and the standing end
in opposite directions and tighten down firmly.
