The Clinch knot
1. Bring the free end of the line up through the eye of the hook. Give yourself about 30cm of free line on top to work with. 2. Take the free end back, behind and then under the straight line, over the top to form a full loop. 3. Continue looping the free end around the straight line in the same direction, Form four loops. Keep the loops fairly loose at this point. 4. With the free end coming from the bottom of turn four, pass it between the hook eye and the first loop. 5. Slowly pull out the slack. Lubricate the knot(saliva is traditionally used).Then pull tightly and trim off the end.
