This knot is used when adding a shock leader to your line. The line being added is usually of higher strength than what is spooled on your reel.
1. Run about 12 inches of your leader line on top of the spooled line. Make 5 wraps around your leader line and spooled line. Bring the tag end of the leader line through the loop formed by the wraps. Hold both lines and slowly pull the tag end tight.
2. Now run the free end of the spooled line about 12 inches over the leader line. Make 5 wraps around both lines and pull the tag end through the loop formed by the wraps. Hold both lines and slowly pull the tag end tight.
3. Wet the lines with saliva and pull slowly, holding the tag ends tight against the other line, in opposite directions until the knots butt against each other.
4. Make sure the knots are tight and clip the tag ends.
