| #1 - Black= bite tippet/White= class tippet |
|
#2 Wrap the “doubled” class tippet 4 times over the bite.
|
|
| #3 Now wrap the doubled class 3 times “over itself” (see the black dots) towards the center of the knot and insert the tag end between the bite and the class. |
|
| #4 Now wrap the bite over the class three times. |
|
| #5 Insert the tag end opposite of the class tag end through the hole. |
|
| #6 Lube the knot with some spit or water, put on some gloves and snug it up holding on to the double class and single bite tippet. Pull hard! |
|
| #7 - The finished knot should look like this. Now trim the 3 tag ends. |
