Angler’s Loop Knot

As its name suggests, this is a useful

knot for anglers to use to make a loop
in the end of their line.
However, it has an even more

useful purpose, as Geoffrey
Budworth pointed out. It works

very well to make a secure loop
in that most difficult of

materials—shock or bungy
cord, an elastic cord that has
many uses but in which most

knots just keep on slipping. When
you are using this knot in bungy

cord, do make sure that the working
end is long and that you give working

end, standing end, and the actual loop
a good tug to ensure that the knot is
very snug and tight.
