A '''turle knot''' is a [[knot]] use while [[fishing]] for tying a [[Fishing hook|hook]] or [[Fly lure|fly]] to a [[leader (fishing)|leader]]. It is named after [[William Greer Turle]], a 19th-century English [[Angling|angler]] who popularized the knot but did not claim to have invented it.  It has sometimes, wrongly, been referred to as the turtle knot.<ref name="budcomp">Geoffrey Budworth, ''The Complete Book of Fishing Knots'' (New York: The Lyons Press, 1999), 108-111.</ref>
