I'm thinking ,if you don't flyfish you wouldn't know why you would use this knot...strength, smoothness, less bulky, and ease of tying when you are standing in moving waist deep water.
Improved clinch knots are not very strong and I really can't believe any notable fly fishermen use them. There are so many knots much much stronger and just as easy to tie, eg., palomar, trylene, even the uni knot is stronger.
I don't fly fish. I can't believe that fly fishermen are so backward in using this inferior knot. Is there some reason to use it that I don't know about?

This was great, other videos they tried to do it using actual fishing line and they were four feet away, this was great

One of the best How-to videos I've seen, very clear and easy to see.

All fly fishermen use the improved clinch knot. If you don't like it - don't use it!
