Angler's loop- the perfection loop

In this tutorial I demonstrate how to tie the Angler's loop, a loop commonly used in fishing. It is also called the "Perfection loop" and it is featured in the ABoK under number 1017.

The loop is secure, easy to tie and works similarly to a bowline knot. It is a great knot to use with slippery line, stretchy cordage and smaller cordage. It is prone to jamming though, so use it when you do not plan to untie it in the future.

Enjoy the video!

Was looking for help with a loop at the end of a Theraband for my daily PT exercises. This is a handy knot. Thank you.

At 2:05 If you send a bight through instead of just the tag end, it disassembles without much trouble!

Thank you, needed to fix a cat toy real quick.

This is good. Plus I just add a little more cordage at the end to make a quick release bight.

If you wrap the tag end around twice instead of once you get a double dragon knot.

Don't say, 2:17 "over the top..." Just say through "into the loop."
I kept getting it wrong, because I was actually trying to go "over the top" of the loop.
However, thanks for the video

Great video. How can we tie this loop around a fixed object and then complete the loop?

"Its just a slipknot with the working end tucked in." An elegant tie of an ugly knot. #bowline4life

[bryantreacher]

The way you have tied this knot would be the way one ties it as in the bight method, you can make it by tying a slipped over hand knot way .also one can tie this into a bend like the bowline bend, but you have to start by tying two over hand knots first and feed the ends into each other.

Thank you it just clicked all of a sudden

Hi Mark. Not perfection as will slip. Especially in Paracord. A substitute for a half blood knot but not for the bowline. Thanks.

I've tensioned this loop with a pulley system, and didn't have any problem untying it... What are those cases, when it's hard to untie this loop?
UPD
I tensioned it a little tighter, and now a see, how it can be troublesome to untie.
