The Spider Hitch |
| This is a faster, easier knot to create
that is equally strong but does not have the resilience
of the Bimini Twist under sharp impact. |
| |
- Form a loop of the leader length
desired. Near the point where it meets the standing
line, twist a section into a small reverse loop.
| |
- Hold small loop between thumb and
fore-finger with thumb extended well above finger
and loop standing out beyond end of thumb.
| |
- Wind double line around both thumb
and loop, taking five turns. Pass remainder
of large loop through the smaller one and pull
to make five turns unwind off the thumb.
| |
- Pull turns around the base of the
loop up tight and snip off tag end.
