After much frustration, I came here to ask how do you guys attach your leader to your fly line? This is after 2 days of steelhead fishing and having those cortland heat shrink leader connectors fall off in the middle of fishing!!! I then obviously have no clue what to do, so I use up my fly line by making loops and what not to attach my leader to. Does anyone have any advice for me? I really dont like tying the nail knot, but if that is the best technique I may have to, but does anyone have any other methods of doing this? 7 weight weight forward line.
