Putorana Plateau fishing tours help anglers from around the country and around the world learn various fishing life hacks. Learn different fishing techniques and test your skills in trolling and fly fishing. or catch noble salmon predators using a spinning rod or fishing rod.
The most important thing is that your fishing tackle doesn't let you down when needed. After all, landing a taimen weighing several dozen kilograms requires reliable equipment. Many fishermen insist that all ligaments must be of high quality, and they often use a knot. for tackle called Palomar.
What are the features of the node?
The main feature of the Palomar knot is that it can be used reliably to tie hooks with narrow eyes. Its strength is similar to that of the Trailin. and is 95%. This indicates that the knot is also superior to the Clinch.
However, if the hook attachment (eye) has a very small diameter, tying it on can be a challenge. Despite these difficulties, anglers use them to tie various tackle and lures, including:
- Sinkers;
- Hooks;
- Mormyshka;
- Wobblers.
The Palomar knot allows you to tie several pieces of tackle together. Let's look at how to tie this knot.
Before knitting, the yarn should be wetted. This will improve its strength and durability later on.
How to tie a knot?
Classic Palomar:
- We take a short length of fishing line, about 30 cm, and fold it in half.
- We step back a couple of fingers from the middle of the bend and pinch this place.
- We pass the loop through the eye of the hook and pull it through to the clamping point.
- We wrap the resulting loop around the double fishing line and thread it through the resulting ring.
- We take it out and put it on the hook.
- We pull it to the end, and then pull the main thread.
- We cut off the excess remains.
Double knot:
For added strength, you can crochet a double Palomar. The technique is similar to the previous one, but instead of two turns, you need to make three or four turns. Then, place the loop on the hook and pull it tight.
Drop shot knot:
It's worth noting that the Palomar is the best choice for this type of fishing. This knot is tied using the same pattern as the classic version, except the hook is threaded onto the line first. After the braid is completed, it is placed inside the knot. At the end of the knot, the loop is placed over the hook and tightened.
Conclusion
As we can see, tying a reliable Palomar knot presents no particular difficulties. Its advantages include the opportunity for anglers on a rafting trip to catch substantial taimen, salmon trout, and nelma.
It's reliable and durable, although tying the knot is quite simple and easy, as long as the eye diameter isn't too small. Visitors to the Putorana Plateau always report enjoying the trophy fishing, Siberian delicacies, and knowledge gained during the tour.
