in another preferred embodiment the wrapping cord has five or more filaments and more preferably ten or more filaments the cord in fig2 is shown being tied in a knot 125 around line 100 generally defining a generally defining a half hitch although other well known knots can be used such as the thumb or overhand knot clove hitch rolling hitch or buntline hitch knot 125 is tied loosely enough so that the cord can be easily moved up and down line 100 when finger pressure is applied directly to knot 125 in a direction generally axial to the axis of line 100 however knot 125 is tied tightly enough around line 100 to achieve the objects of the invention free ends 126 and 127 extend sufficiently to perform the actions of fig3 and 4 fig3 shows a second action in applying the connector cord to a main fishing line 100 free ends 128 and 129 connect respectively to free ends 126 and 127 fig2 knot 125 fig2 forms a secure locus from which individual figure eight loops 131 and 132 are drawn and formed around line 100 to form loop section 130 forming each loop 131 or 132 is done or later tightened preferably to minimize cord length needed for each such loop minimizing cord length in each loop 111 improves the gripping effect of cord 101 around line 100 when the connected hook 103 is pulled with substantial tension in direction 124 fig1 again referring to fig3 at least four loops 131 and 132 are formed to complete loop section 130 although it is.
