[black][size 3]Easy as tying your shoe lace.[/size][/black]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Pass the leader thru the eye of the fly.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Hold the fly in one hand, and double the leader back on itself with the other hand.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Tie a "regular" knot, and when complete, pass the leader and fly thru the knot again.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]Adjust the knot location, add moisture and tighten.[/size]
[size 3][/size]
[size 3]There, you have tied a surgeon's loop. Size of the loop doesn't matter, but with experience, the loop will get smaller.[/size]
