A SIMPLE KNOT
I am seventy-three years old and started fishing with my father long before I can remember. Last summer I had a grandson, four and a half years old out in a boat with me fishing. He had his own pole and caught a number of good-sized fish. Maybe I didn’t enjoy seeing him bait his own hook. Recently I became a reader of Outer’s and have gotten some bright ideas from the Kink column.
Here is something I have never seen in print. It is a method of tying a line on a ringed hook so that it can be readily untied again. Simply tie with an ordinary single bow knot. Bring the end of the knot through the loop and pull all down tight. To untie, it will be found very easy to withdraw the end from the loop and then a single pull opens everything up.
