    Question Rapala Knot???

    I remember reading a post a while back about the rapala knot giving jerkbaits mare action. I would like to know if it works equally as well for hard jerkbaits and soft jerkbaits??? Any info is appreciated, Thanks.

    Great knot. Practice it at home until you can get a smaller size loop. The first dozen times you will probably tie a large loop until you get the hang of it.

    Works good on top water baits too.

    Still working on learning how to tie this knot properly. One thing I have learned is to be careful what type of line you tie this knot. Couldn't get Trilene XL to hold a good breaking strenght and I am a Big fan of Trilene XL. Gamma line is what I use when I tie this knot.

    www.animatedknots.com is an excellent site that shows different knots and how to tie them if you need any help. I think it was Dave Stewart that mentioned this site and it is very good.
