Technology Versus Knot Tying
As spring approaches and the snow eventually begins to recede. Once again we enjoy the greenery that nature has provided us. It’s time to get the fly rod out in eager anticipation of another season of long, warm, lazy days spent at your favourite fishing hole.
It’s also the time that new, would be anglers are anticipating taking up the sport of fly-fishing. Conveniently there are many experts out there in cyberspace, with advice and articles on what are considered the best rods, reels and line etc. Many tackle shops are owned by, avid, experienced and highly skilled anglers. Who will provide the new comer with the much sought after advice on getting started in the sport.
The technology in rods, reels, flies and lines, has advanced by leaps and bounds, in the past 20 years or so. However, no matter how technologically advanced or expensive your fishing equipment is. It is only as good as the knot’s you tie! The knot may be the weak link in the chain when the fish strike.
Tying strong and reliable knots will enhance your chances of actually landing that fish. There are many books and resources available on how to tie knots, how to splice lines and which knot to use in various situations. I cannot emphasize enough the need to learn as much as you can about knot tying. It should be noted too, that practicing the tying of a variety of knots, greatly increases your chances for success.
Some anglers prefer to tie their knots the old fashioned way by hand. There is nothing wrong with that, as they say whatever floats your boat (if you’ll pardon the pun). If that isn’t for you there are a variety of tying tools you can get from virtually any angling store. These tools are very good especially for beginners. Knot tying tools can also be a real asset to anyone suffering from arthritis, or other debilitating condition.
Knot tying tools in many cases will allow you to tie stronger knots faster than you could by hand. Tying stronger knots increases your success rate. The least time spent tying knots, means you spend more time fishing and that’s what it’s all about.
