Atlas of Oregon Lakes • If you fsh lakes, this in an invaluable resource which shows detailed information. You’ll fnd ramps and depths which helps determine where the fsh are located. Fishing • Netknots.com by my friend John Sherry is a great site to learn the knots needed to fsh. I use an Improved Clinch to tie on fies, triple Surgeon knot for tippet, Perfection Loop for loop-to-loop (if needed), and a to attach the fy line. Most fy lines these days come with a welded loop in the end. And many purchased leaders also have a loop to attach to the fy line. • Additional knots I use from time to time include the for connecting larger diameter monoflament when creating a tapered leader and the Turle knot for steelhead fies. • Bob provided a Comment on the website and mentioned he used the Davy knot. I decided to check it out. I like it. Simple, small, and strong. • John has some wonderful knot card that ft in your pocket, bag, or vest if you need a refresher on how to tie the proper knots. You can see them HERE.
