Attaching Backing To Fly Line Without A Welded Loop | The Albright knot

Here’s how to tie an Albright Knot! (See video above). This is our favorite knot to attach backing to a fly line without a welded loop on the rear end, as well as to attach the butt section of a leader to a fly line without a welded loop on the front end. We favor this knot for its strength and for its slim profile when tied correctly.
