What are good fly fishing knots for tying flies?

Question by : What are good fly fishing knots for tying flies?
I am new to fly fishing and when i tie a fly to the line, they always come off after about 10 flicks. I’ve used the clinch and the duncan knot. I’m also using 4 pound test leader line. Please give me some good knots that won’t get undone.

Are you hearing a cracking noise like a whip when you are casting?
If so then you are trying to do your forward and back casting strokes too early. That is the only thing that I can think of that would make a knot come undone. The clinch knot shouldn’t come undone from casting. There are other knots like the palomar knot, turtle knot.
