For the enthusiastic pliers of the art and craft of fishing, this app consists of a selection of popular fishing knots in various categories like Loops, Joining Lines, Hook and Tackle Knots. The history of fishing has been the history of a continuous evolution and improvement of lines and the knots tied in those lines. Fishing dates back to at least the Paleolithic period; hooks have been found from the Stone Age, so our ancestors clearly had some form of cord and a method of tying the hooks into it. Since then, fishermen have refined their lines to be thinner and stronger and their knots, whether for rod-and-reel fishing or net fishing, to be sturdier and more effective.

Clever fishing tips and tricks have passed from angler to angler for as long as people have fished. Most fishing tips, like Aristotle’s, are of questionable value. Lots of the tips you find in magazines and books have not been thoroughly tested; they may have worked for somebody, but they don’t work for you. Many so-called tips are common knowledge to anybody who spends much time on the water. Others are intended simply to sell you something. What is a good tip? Certainly, it isn’t a dissertation about how to find walleyes throughout the year.
That’s strategy. Nor is it a description of fishing dry flies for trout. That’s a tactic. Strategy and tactics are the fundamentals of good angling, but they’re too comprehensive to be called tips. And a good tip isn’t a sales pitch for a high-priced, high-tech gizmo. That’s not a tip, it’s advertising. Rather, a good tip is a specific solution to a vexing problem. The best ones are simple and cheap. They make your fishing easier or more enjoyable. A good tip often triggers new ideas and helps you fashion your own solutions. Most important of all, a good tip helps you catch more fish. After collecting thousands of morsels of advice, we sorted through them, looking for those that were new, unusual, simple, and, above all, helpful.
