    Anybody know how to tie a Palomar Knot??

    Heading off to KY Lake in the morning for 4 days of ledge fishing at its finest. I figure with the FLW taking out of Ky Dam Village the first 2 days and Ken Lake the last 2 days, we should have North Ky to ourselves. Since I have been on the water a TOTAL of 23 days since January 2009, I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to tie a Palomar Knot, what is a Sinker, what is a crankbait, what is a C Rig, what is a Football Jig, what are trailers, what is a ledge, what is a rod and reel, what kind of line do I use, how do you start the boat, where does the drain plug go and most of all WHERE ARE THE FISH??????? If I don't fall in the lake and sink to the bottom to become a human brushpile, I will be back Saturday night to spend the day with the kiddies on Sunday. Would not mind to catch a dink or two or three hundred

    On second thought, I'll try to answer on how to correctly tie a palomar knot.

    Double loop a dropper line and inverse tie a uni-knot. Thread the tag end through the hook eye and then tie a series of surgeon's knots.

    If you also pronounce the word "pile" close to "pal" you'll end up with a Pileofmore knots.

    Way too hard to tie, I guess I will just use the old standby square knot and try to not hit Mark in the back of the head with a 1 oz C Rig or DD22.
