Yuo can cast this knot through the guides. On a spinner it lets you cast with your finger on mono so your finger gets less abuse. On conventional this knot can clip your thumb if you dont pull back enough at the start of the cast.

That happens with any knot on a conventional really. But the beauty of this knot is you can cut your tag ends very short, almost to nothing.
