Hello all...
I am new to fishing and I'm slowly learning everything I need to know, although with mistakes.
Yesterday I learned about knots and I decided I would use the "San Diego Jam" knot when needed. To practice making it, I went ahead and created a leader line on all my hooks and used the San Diego Jam on the hooks... Oops!
Today I learned that you are supposed to do a "Snell Knot" on your hooks. That really sucks because I probably did at least 50 hooks or so with the San Diego Knot.
Do you guys think I will be alright with this or will the hook snap off every time I pull a fish in?
