New Knots Suck

[duckman1911]

Am I the only one that gets frustrated when trying to learn a new knot? Playing with the FG knot right now. I've got it to a working knot but its just not very pretty. Really pisses me off when you think you finally have it figured out just to realize you don't.
My dreams are being crushed a few feet of string at a time.

yep, you cant do it while fishing, you have to tie about 30-40 knots at home until you get used to it and even then you forget sometimes.

All you need is a loop and a surgeon. They are both simple.

Of all the people in this forum, I would never have thought that you'd have a hard time tying a knot!

Wanted the FG knot to join 100+lb mono to 80lb PP. Its a very slimline knot that will pass through the eyes smoothly.
