entered the loop, pass the lighter material back through the loop, as

                     shown here.
                  3.  Pull  on  the  standing  parts  of  the  lighter  material  and  the  heavier
                     material—pull steadily, don’t rush. Allow the coils to form toward the
                     end of the loop. Pull the tag end of the lighter material to seat the
                     coils. Next, pull steadily on the standing part of the lighter material,
                     coaxing the coils to the end of the loop in the heavier material. Using
                     pliers, pull the tag end of the lighter line, hard. Pull equally on the

                     light  standing  line  and  heavy  tag  to  secure  the  knot.  Trim  the  tag
                     ends.


               Note: In the classic knot-tying book Practical Fishing Knots II, the authors
               Mark Sosin and Lefty Kreh recommend using a finishing knot to lock the
               tag  end  of  the  lighter  line  of  the  Albright  in  place,  the  same  way  you
               would lock the Bimini Twist (see steps 3 and 4 of the Bimini on page 82).
