1. First loop the line around the spool
2. Encircle the main line, or standing part
with the tag
3. And again,
4. Then a third time, this time passing the
tag right over, then back through, the previous loops.
5. By following these steps, we create a
noose, which is pulled tight on the spool of the wheel. When the noose
is pulled tight we can wind the line onto the reel.
Twisted Dropper Loop (Perambut)
1. Twisted the line so a spiral forms where
the dropper is intended. The more twist, the longer the spiral will be.
2. Isolate the spiral by crossing the line
from each side to form a loop with your index finger between loop and
tag.
3. Twist the crossover alternately with
each hand, inserting and withdrawing the index finger of each hand as
each twist is made.
4. Having completed four complete twists
(eight half twist), pass the spiral through at the crossover where you
were twisting with your fingers.
5. Holding the spiral in your mouth to
prevent it from slipping out, tighten with pressure on the line each
side of the knot.
6. Thread on a hook and observe how the
twisted dropper stands clear of the main line.

GENERAL
KNOT TIPS
Always pass the line through the eye of your
terminal tackle twice (if you can) when tying line. Double the line
before tying any of the recommended knots if your tackle will allow,
doubling the line will result in a larger knot that will improve the
knot strength. Don't use the common or improved clinch knot-clinch knots
will slip with the slick surface of the line*

ATTACHING LINE TO YOUR REEL
Our
first task, after buying a rod and reel, is to wind a line of suitable
breaking strain onto the reel. We are going to attach the line to the
spool of the reel with a Centuari Knot.
I suggest that the line should be wound onto the reel
under moderate tension, enough to load the rod slightly. This is easier
to do should someone holding the spool of line on a pencil, or the like,
and applying a small amount of pressure. A better alternative is to
first wind the line onto another reel. This reel is also mounted on a
road, which is placed in a rod holder. Then the drag (clutch) of the
first reel is adjusted to the desired tension for spooling the second
reel.
TWISTED DROPPER LOOP (Perambut)
Dropping a baited line in deep water often causes the hook leader to
tangle around the main line. One way of avoiding this is to attached the
hook with a twisted dropper. See the diagrams on your left for details.
 Uni
Knot
1. Pass the line through the eye of your terminal tackle at least twice,
then leave about 12" to the knot.
2. Make a loop, then put 8 to 10 wraps through the
loop with the tag end.
3. Pull the tag end and secure the knot, making sure that the loops snug
down in an ordered fashion.
4. Pull on the standing line to jam the knot against the eye. Trim the tag end.
 Palomar
Knot
1. Make a 10" loop in the line.
2. Pass it through the eye of your terminal
tackle. Pass it twice if the eye is big enough.
3. Tie a simple overhand knot.
4. Pass your terminal tackle through the loop.
5. Pull on the standing line to tighten the knot, and trim the tag end.
 Uni
to Uni Splice
1. Position the monofilament and the braided line so that they run
parallel with each other for 12" and 18".
2. Make a loop with monofilament and pass the tag
end through the loop and around both lines 5 or 6 times. Pull the tag
end and secure the knot making sure that the loops snug down in an
ordered fashion. Repeat with braided tag end, except with 8 to 10 wraps
through the loop.
3. Pull on the standing lines, and you will see the two knots jam, forming
the connection.
4. Trim the braided line about 1/8" past the knot, but trim the monofilament
as close as the knot as you can (the stiff end of the monofilament can
snag the upper layers on the spool when casting).
