I guess I'm not much of a boy scout -- something about this thread made me laugh...
My knots? I use the following:
1. the "twisty" knot. You know, that one that you twist the line up, then feed the tag back trough the loop and pull it tight?
2. the "loop" knot. That's the one that ends up as a loop.
3. The "figure 8 knot". This one you do a couple over-hand knots then start to pull it tight until it forms a figure 8, then feed the hook through both loops in the 8 and pull it tight.
4. slip knot. That's how I attach my line to the real. (backing too).
I never did earn my Tenderfoot....but I did earn my fishing merit badge!
