Uses: The Surgeon's Loop can be tied quickly and easily in the end of a line. It is often used to make a loop to loop connection or to create a loop which allows the artificial lure or fly to move naturally.

Tying it: It is tied in the same way as the Double Surgeon's Knot.

Advantages: The advantage for this knot is that some sources claim that it retains a high proportion of ideal line strength.
