Episode description

The Homer Rhode loop knot is a type of fishing knot that creates a fixed loop at the end of a fishing line. This loop can be used to attach hooks, swivels, lures, or other terminal tackle. The Homer Rhode loop knot was developed by Homer Rhode, a famous angler and fly fishing expert, in the early 1900s. The resulting knot should be strong, secure, and easy to tie. This knot is especially popular among fly fishermen, but it can be useful in a wide range of fishing applications. In this episode, Tom test the knot with 12 lb fluorocarbon.
