Print this then laminate.......makes a great gift!

[joedog]

Hey, got a question, what are they talking about when I hear someone say they tie a double palmor knot?
Oh thanks for the chart but I think I can buy one for myself!
You know better than getting me started!
I really do want to know about this 'double palomar'.

If they manage to pass SOPA, this whole thread will be illegal.

Kenneth is right....just do Step 2 twice.

I got the palomar committed to memory, even for FREE I don't want it. Wait, I could do that for Doc, he can't remember what day it is - what a nice guy I am, huh? A little tape, and tape it to his forehead so he'll know where it is, a mirror to hang around his neck, then I could LMFAO watching him tie it backwards all day long.

[joedog]

So does the second overhand knot really make this knot stronger?

[MississippiBoy]

I only use it with lures that I know I'm going to put a ton of stress on, mainly frogs thrown waaay back into pad fields or grass. I think it's supposed to make doubly sure it doesn't slip. That being said, I've never had any trouble with the regular Palomar slipping any, so I can't say for sure if it helps or not.

[nofearengineer]

I've been using the regular Palomar for over 30 years, with no problems. Teach yourself to tie it without looking, and you'll be surprised how easy it is to tie during normal situations.

[joedog]

Ya, I use the classic palomar, not exclusively, but alot.
Believe it or knot,I use a 'Double' San Diego Jam Knot on my FloroHybrids because the Lake Fork guys said too. But until you tie it like a thousand times, it's not an easy knot.IMO And yes I use others (you know by now, 'gotta complicate everything') but these two are my go toos.

i so the songle, and the double. great knot. i even use it with mono sometimes. doubleing it makes sure it doesn't slip like mb said.

now sometimes i'll slip it throught the hook eye twice. that helps too.

Bama I'm sure you know by now that most if not all of us here think the world of you....I'm sitting here thinking that if you had a spell-check program......well.....in short order you'd probably get an error message something like.......(What the HELL???? I'm outa here...your on your own buddy!!!):coo l:

[bassinbob]

I'm gettin so damn old I have to teach myself how to tie knots every year. The one I never forget is the improved clinch. Been tieing that since the 60's.

[bamabassman]

ken....i DID have spell check...and that is EXACTLY what happened. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!


for real, sometimes ol arthuritis get sthe better of me fingers. sometimes i tpye so fast my fingers don't go where they are supposed to. and sometimes BOTH happen at once. lisa gets so mad at me when she reads some of the stuff i type here. and she says "why don't you go back and read waht you typed?" i say that then ya'll would n't have so much fun trying to figure out what i am saying. BWAHAHAHAHA. then i get the "rolled eyes" form her and she walks out of the room. thank GOD she loves me huh? lol!!
