Here's another shot of that professional loop done with the fly line, a little bit less bulky. This works with bulky materials pretty well, maybe not as well on the rope but definitely on the fly line where the section here looks pretty thick. So once again, we're just going to make a loop to start with, like so, and make another loop behind it, like so. And then we'll take the tag end, put it between the two loops, then we grab the second loop, pull it through the first loop, like that. Pull it kind of tight, and that's what it looks like when it's done. Pretty neat little loop. Do that again, And it's a pretty good loop as you can see, once you tighten it up, it's tight. Going to untie it real quick here, then retie it again. So, in fast motion, loop, second loop, pull the tag between the two loops, pull the first loop through the second loop. That's it. Try one more time. Loop, loop, in between, pull the second loop through the first loop, and that's it, perfection.
