Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device massbassman 08-23-2014, 07:55 AM I'm forced to keep using a swivel, cause I suck at knots!! Its like I have three fingers on each hand.

Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device Give this knot a try, it small enough to cast threw eyelets on a rod, and it eliminates a knot that can fail.

Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device I'm going to practice it a bunch of times skippy, and try and get it down. I really hate using, and tying swivels in the dark. It looks like one of the easier knots to tie that I've seen. Thanks for sharing! Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device beamie 08-23-2014, 08:58 AM Uni to Uni has always worked fine for me. Swimmer 08-23-2014, 06:47 PM Lot shorter videos than this one to learn the knot Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device iamskippy 08-23-2014, 07:18 PM I'm going to practice it a bunch of times skippy, and try and get it down.

Otherwise you would not be learning these knots.? Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device O.D. Mike 08-24-2014, 10:37 AM Triple surgeons knot, simple to tie as easy as tying your shoe.... Kinda... 5/0 08-24-2014, 10:39 AM Uni to Uni, Uni to everything for me Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device When I hook up braid 2 braid I use uni 2 uni but braid 2 mono/flouro I'll use a blood knot and use ChapStick in stead of spit to keep the friction down. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device Rob Rockcrawler 08-24-2014, 01:22 PM That's a cool knot. I have been using the alberto for a few years now but not a fan of tying it in the dark. I only use a knot like that when chunking with a top shot. I will fool around with that one, it looks real easy to tie. ProfessorM 08-24-2014, 01:34 PM Uni to uni braid to leader but double the braid. NS recommendation, stronger knot. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device bloocrab 08-24-2014, 02:13 PM If tying braid to leader,the purpose is avoiding a swivel. Otherwise you would not be learning these knots.? Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device Perhaps I do things differently Yes, (*use-awhateva*) knot for connecting different denier types especially with long leaders that may pass through guides, however (I) will incorporate a swivel pre-snap/BA-clip at the lure to assist in avoiding line twist.
