One of the most useful knots to know for toothy fish!<\/p>\nToothy fish require special gear.\u00a0 While many pre-tied leaders are available out there, we do not recommend trusting someone else's knots!\u00a0 Most guides prefer a butt section of hard monofilament followed by wire.\nThe guides will almost always tie your knots for you, but if you want to have the knowledge on how to rig your own bite guard, below Pete Kurtzer from Orvis shows us how to tie the Slim Beauty Knot.\u00a0 (Take note of using old fly line to practice!)\n
