    Can't even lie, I've had leader knots break or slip and lose fish many times. But I paused this video and went out got some big game line and Braid to practice. 2nd try & I feel like I could pull a truck with this guy! thanks for the informative content man.

    Palomar knot cuts into itself too!!! I started tying the double uni knot. Double over your line like you showed simple uni and when you cinch it down you have to pull the main line and the tag end and give er that extra pull at the hook pull the tag end and she'll cinch down tight. I use it for braid mostly and leave your tag a little longer so you don't throw your bait off on a backlash. Simple uni for fluoro has been the best for me.

    Been tying the crazy Alberto for a few years now. Seriously a game changer. I love the FG knot. But as you stated. Harder to tie. And more time consuming. I retie my leader at least once per trip out. This crazy Alberto is a legit knot. Casts through all my guides on all my spinning gear excellent. Even micro guides don’t mind it. I usually tie my 25 lb braid to 6-8 lb leader. I have never had one that was properly tied slip. Ever. Not a single one.

  • @dallaswood4117
    @dallaswood4117 3 года назад

    thank you!! finally somebody with some logic, what difference does it make if you leave a little extra tag end of line, what the fish are going to notice your half centimeter of tag end and somehow magically they don't see the 50 feet of mainline attached to the lure in the water. i don't leave 2 inches hanging off, but i do leave a little wiggle room, like you say in case the knot snugs down a little more it doesn't pull through.

    a tip on how to start the double clinch knot that's easier with smaller eyelets or when your fingers are freezing, instead of passing the loop through just pass the line through quite a ways double back and go back through. so you end up with a loop through the eyelet but don't have to try and pinch or manipulate the line.

    I've never thought of the snail that way hitting the roof of the mouth before it gets set you have a very good point I always use it when I'm catfishing like with live bait or cut bait but I do use an offset hook or off set it myself and I'm sure that helps I've heard the snail called the trigger effect I know probably probably almost all knot's and usually use the fg I've used the Alberto before been awhile next time I have to retie and I'm out in the wind I'll use it anyway very educational video I figured I'd watch

    I’ve been messing up your lure knot for about 6 months now and it has been working most of the time. I have been taking the double line once I go back through the base by the hook eye and bringing it back threw the big loop like a fisherman’s knot. I will definitely be trying the brad to leader knot.

    If you can get the loop of a doubled line through the hook eye you can just put the tag end of the line through in one direct then back through in the opposite direction, leaving a loop to tie the palomar. Easier than jamming a double line through

    I have a little demonstration anyone thinking they have a knot problem.
    Take a bass rod tie a bag of flour to the line. Now using your normal fish fighting technique. Pick the bag of flour up off the floor. 😮😮😮😮😮 Amazing!!!
    Learn anything?
    Yes knots matter, but so does fresh line, nicks in your line, guide quality.
    I dont buy expensive rods. I learned to replace my tip tops with FUJI SIC guides as the tip top puts the most friction of all guides.
    Now , last tip. Point your rod at the fish when they make a hard run. Don't believe me? Test this, pull line at nine or ten o'clock then straight out the end of your guides. Best of luck.

    i also switched for the improved clinch to the double clinch. easy switch but seems to be much stronger. had too many knots cut through themselves or get cut by the those stupid keychain style eyelets on baits. just makes the point of contact with the lure or hook thicker and more durable.
