The Turle Knot, also called a Turtle Knot, is not suitable for straight-eyed hooks. It is a specialized knot that attaches the leader to off-set eyed flies (down or up), for a straight pull.
To Tie a Turle Knot:
Pass the tag end through the eye and loop it around the shank of the hook, finishing off with an overhand knot.
Double the overhand knot for an improved Turle Knot.
