Slug-go prices

k,
first question
"Double back 36" of Dacron Line so you have an 18" length of double line
Cut Darcon - now you have a natural loop on one end and two single strands on the other end.
Tie an overhand knot (shoelace knot) on each end
Tie the loop end to the 5/0 tail hook with an improved clinch knot"

after you tie the overhand knot at the loop end how do do a clinch knot... how do you do a clinch knot on the loop end anyway for that matter. I think i might be reading what to do there wrong.

[MotoXcowboy]

same way you would do a clinch knot..except instead of a single strand use the end loop (doubled up, clinch knot I suppose)

I couldnt figure out at first either..till I watched one of steve's seminars..

let me explain.. double up, tie your overhand knot, then push your loop end through the hook eye, then..do your clinch knot wraps, and pull tight

tie the unlooped ends together with a single overhand knot

tough to do...

I understand how to do a clinch knot but being doubled up is what was misleading me.

Don't think of it as being doubled up. Think of the loop as being the end of your line. Put the line (loop) through the hook eye, then proceed with the knot wraps. Pull tight. And yes you can trim the excess loop...just don't trim it too short. Allow for some tightening of the knot. Leave a 1/2" pigtail to be safe or don't even trim it. It will be hidden inside the sluggo anyways.
