way down at the bottom of cast boolits some one posted about the hangs mans knot and how to tie them. i put my 2 cents in and said that is the knot ive been useing all my 73 years of life to tie my fishing line and hooks together. i think i learned it from a field and stream mag. in study hall back in the 50/s. am i doing it right and do others use the hangmans knot for that also. ive had hooks break but dont remember the knot breaking.
