I use the Loon Knot Sense to seal the nail knot and fly line end, and to make a smooth surface to pass through the rod eyes. The Loon makes a very hard smooth finish, and works great. I also make the Amnesia just as short as I can to not add any additional weight.

Dano; I only use Blue Sky thread furled leaders, and I've tried a bunch of them through the years. You can order them off the Net, or at Tim's Fly Shop at Roaring River. I can provide you with some Amnesia as the only time I change that loop connection is when I change fly line. I have enough to last us both a lifetime. I will send a PM.

Sounds like we are doing it the same way Steve. Except I will get some Loon Knot Sense to seal the nail knot and fly line end. I too have 200' of ?Amnesia?

I carry a some loops made up in my vest. Their is always someone looking to cob up a leader attachment. Just something to pass on. If we can keep people fly fishing we are doing a good thing.

When i set people up at work that arent very skilled fisherman, i use the nail knot 20#amnesia with the perfection loop. I just suggest it to new folks that could get confused with all the knots, etc. The easier the better for someone getting into the sport and loop to loop connections are gravy....

On that note i also use the ?amnesia? on my fly lines. The gpx started to do the sink but i forgot to add the glue to seal it up: . Now that its sealed it works like a charm.
