Lubricate your knots to get maximum strength

When you are fishing, if you want your knots to seat correctly and achieve maximum strength, then you must always be sure to lubricate your knots before you tie them. To lubricate, tie the knot loosely at first. Then dip it in the water (or spit on it), then tighten it up completely. Your knot will then be as strong as possible.
