Jansik knot







  This knot, often referred to as the Jansik special, ties light lines to a hook, lure, or swivel. Like

  the trilene knot (see page 180), it incorporates two turns around the ring or eye, and it is this
  feature that makes the Jansik (if carefully tied) almost as strong as the unknotted line.


  Pass the working end through the ring or eye of the hook or other bit of tackle (1), then pass it
  through a second time (2). Place the standing part of the line alongside the two resulting loops (3).

  Tuck and wrap the end three times around this trio of line parts (4), before kneading and working
  the lubricated knot snug and tight up against the ring or eye (5). Snip the end off close to the eye.
