"The next one is one that I call the double clinch knot. It's basically a clinch, but just like that last one that we tied, you go through the eye of the hook twice, so go through the eye of the hook and then go back through one more time. And that basically just gives you another layer of the material going through the eye of the hook. So I pinch my loop that I have here now and then just finish it off like a regular clinch knot. Go around the line, one, two, three, four, five times and then take it back and make sure that you go through both of those loops there before you tighten it up. And it takes a little bit more coercing sometimes to get it tightened up because you've got it through there twice, but now once again you've got two layers of material going through the eye of the hook, makes it a little bit stronger."
