You rock MP. Excellent!

Note how he uses the forefinger to trap the loops against the tool to prevent them from getting out of place. Also note the subtle snap to get the knot off the tool. The only thing I don't agree with is using just 4 or 5 wraps. I find 6 is better with light line. Less wraps as your line gets heavier. It really does work swell. A bit trickier to tie a lure on but still no big deal. This knot is 100% strength [smiley=thumbup.gif]
