<font color='#000080'>its a four turn water knot&#33; Hold the hook length against the rig body with the hook going away from the lead end form a loop from the two lines bellow the hook and pass the tag ends throgh the loop four times. Its basically treating the two lines as one and putting a four turn granny knot in it. Sorry no pictures but there will be a site out there with it on.
Hope that helps a bit,
