The Bimini Twist is a popular fishing knot primarily used to create a double-line leader or loop at the end of a fishing line. It's known for its strength and reliability, especially when dealing with large or powerful fish. Here's how to tie a Bimini Twist:
1. **Create a loop**: Double the fishing line to form a large loop. Hold the loop with your left hand, leaving a tag end of about 10 to 12 inches hanging down.
2. **Twist the loop**: With the loop held between your thumb and index finger, twist it approximately 20 to 30 times, ensuring the twists are tight and evenly spaced.
3. **Secure the twist**: Hold the loop's twists together with your left hand, then fold the loop back towards the standing line, forming a second loop.
4. **Secure the second loop**: With the tag end, wrap it around both loops and the standing line at least 10 times. Make sure the wraps are tight and neatly spaced.
5. **Pass the tag end through the second loop**: After wrapping, thread the tag end through the second loop, ensuring it enters from the same side as where the twists were formed.
6. **Moisten the knot**: Lubricate the knot with saliva or water to reduce friction and prevent overheating during cinching.
7. **Slowly tighten the knot**: Hold the standing line with one hand and the tag end with the other. Gradually apply pressure to cinch the knot down smoothly.
8. **Finish the knot**: Once the knot is tightened, trim the tag end close to the knot, leaving a small stub.
9. **Test the knot**: Pull on both ends of the line to ensure the knot is securely tied and holds without slipping.
The Bimini Twist creates a strong loop in the fishing line, often used for attaching a leader or connecting to the double-line section of a fishing rig. It's a bit more complex than some other knots but is highly effective, especially in situations where strength and durability are essential. Practice is key to mastering this knot.

Rizzuto Knot !!
Rizzuto knot to finish..I use it to finish FG knot, works great. Next video can we see how you attach your leaders to that please. Love the videos learn plenty watching them
This is a great clean knot. About 25 years ago Lefty Kreh, a famous fly fisherman showed me how to whip finish the bimini knot just like this. Been using it ever since!
I was just thinking, “I haven’t seen a vid from Mike in a while”; BAM, here you are! I learned something new today as well, 45 wraps on braid, I have been under wrapping and going to correct that one TOMORROW! Ruzzuto finish, as you have discussed so many times. Thanks for all the education you have provided me.
You’re right: His videos are SO good, he should be making them more often! I been missing them!
00 🔥🔥🔥

Great video...finished with a uni-knot. Tight lines!
Great run down of the Bimini!
Great video, thanks for posting, I'm going to start practising.Tight lines from Ireland 🇮🇪
Mike, very nice technique. Yet in the grand scheme one must always consider the weakest link. To that end, I'd like to see you make a video on the uses of the Bimini twist. I searched the tube for such a video and found nothing. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
Yes. I want to see something that shows how you connect to the Bimini twist.
awesome tech! Rizzuto knot to finish!
It’s amazing how much we learn by teaching 😜. Great tips especially being consistent. Great video
💯 truth.

How do you attach your leader to the double line end of the Bimini twist ?
It is the Rizzuto knot. Happy Easter Captain Mike!
Good day ser..Nice teaching I like it..8 love fishing..salamat sa sharing ng iyong vlog..take care always..GodBless us!!!
Nice demo
The finishing knot is the rizzuto knot. I remember reading saltwater sportsman magazines when I was a kid. I need to subscribe to them.
Looking forward to your next video! Please post again soon!
Rizzuto to finish! Love it
Rizzuto knot for the finish 👍🏻
Rizzuto knot Capt.

Finishing knot is a Rizzoto knot. I think of pasta when I think of that knot. Great video Capt Mike 👍🏻
Definitely a uniknot to finish that beautiful twist
A lock knot or Rizzuto finish. Great video.
Rissuto knot? Thanks for sharing 👍
Rizutto finish same finishing knot I use on my FG for heavier leader
Hi Capt. Mike - Can you please make a video on what to attache to a Bimini? How to do it? Knots, hardware,, etc??
I'm looking to be able to do quick changovers from one leader to another while using a Bimini Twist, depending on what I'm fishing for. Can you please do one of these videos?
Looks like a difficult method to do in rough seas. I'll have to stick to the FG for my line to leader connection.
Great! so much easier using the rod as tension. how do you attach your leader.
Great video, but would love to see how you use that Bimini twist. How do you attach to a leader? What if you put a bimini twist on braid? How would you then attach to mono? Thanks!
Good summation. I need to remain teachable, lol. Twisting the line instead of one wrapping around another is something I'll have to start doing. Most important point to a bimini is tight coils all the way thru. And looseness especially in start of coiling should be re-tied. Would like to see him do this on 80 lb off shore line
Happy Easter
This video proved helpful to me. It took about a half dozen attempts, but I managed to tie the Bimini knot with 40 lb mono. Do you recommend the GT knot or the Bristol to join the main line to a 100 lb mono leader?
Rizzuto finish knot. 😉
Rizzoto knot to finish, I've seen every one of your videos on knots multiple times! Keep them in my library so I can find them when I need it! Thanks for another great video capt Mike! Tight lines!
Rizzuto finish - shirt please! 😊
The Rizzuto finish. That’s how I also finish a FG knot
I use the Bimini twist for Mono/Fluoro, and the FG when braid is involved. For braid, I refuse to use anything else and for Mono/Fluoro, I will use nothing other than the Bimini.
Anyway, 2 years late, but that is callled the Rizzuto Finish. I use it for both the Bimini and the FG.
Just found your channel and really enjoying it. I have inshore fished forever and now diving into saltwater. The Bimini is a name that is mentioned in fishing for as long as I can remember reading outdoor mags and before RUclips. Here is my stupid question. Everyone shows tieing the ready to use knot. But then what? How are we attaching the leader? Is there a specific follow up to this knot? Is it a knot that is easy to have ready on each rod for changing tactics and baits? Thanks.
Bimini Twist finish knot is the Rizzuto Knot. Great Video. Learn so much from your videos.
What cutters are those?
Manley Mono Cutters - bit.ly/Mono-Cutters
How do you tie your lead to the Bimini knot? Can you use a swivel and tie your leader to the swivel
Would you do less wraps with a higher lb mono?
it looks fast and effective but how do you attach a leader to it? any link to watch id like to see it
I like the bristol knot also called "no name".
You need to do a close-up of locking that thing in. I couldn’t tell exactly what you were doing
We call Rizzuto knot for the at end finishing knot
I need to see how you tie the leader to that line... can you directly catch a hook?
Is the finishing knot called a rizzuto knot? Happy Easter! 🐣
Great Instructional vid Mike. Seems like you are towards Miami, do you charter? Flyfishing at 8,000' in N. New Mexico.
I know how to tie the Bimini and have been doing it for at least a decade. However, for me, I prefer the Spyder hitch. It's stronger than the Bimini, and I have seen several online tests confirm that fact. Granted, it's not as sexy as the Bimini, but I think the Spyder hitch is a superior knot.
With braided line first time tieing this knot it moves up... Should it or not move?
I’ve only heard of it as a whip finish.
Surgeons knot!
So is a mystery on how to connect a leader to the bimini? Is it a loop to loop? 2 bimini's using a cats paw?
