By far most logical instruction on KZread, thanks.

I just switched to braid from fluorocarbon. I got this knot first try. Thanks so much. Not even gonna try Uni. Palomar was so easy

You don't have to double loop the eye

Thanks heaps. I'm terrible with knots and my first time fishing with braid. You've helped me out heaps

I was shown the Palomar knot (on monofilament) about 30 years ago, I was sceptical as I always used the blood knot for tying hooks and swivels. I did many, many tests with a blood knot one end of some line, and a Palomar knot at the other. The blood knot ALWAYS failed first, and I've used the Palomar ever since. I didn't realise it could be used with braid, you've made my day! Thank you.

So it was basically one half of the blood knot we use to join lines together?

I have to agree with the below comments, best knot tieing video i've seen. the pace was right, and I'm sure I'll tie these right the first time.

Your knot videos are by far the best I've found on KZread! Not too fast paced, you explain things really well in a way that beginners can understand. I've just learned this and your double uni knot to attach leader to braid. Thanks a lot.

Im 66 and I've been stymied by braid. Until I stumbled upon your excellent videos. I'm using a zebco 33 anniversery edition just because its hard. Only works with mono though so I'm getting a rod and reel that handles braid. I fish in the ocean wit a lot heavier gear and I might convert those poles to braid too. Subscribed.

Nice job…. Gong for switch to those!

I like the uni knot best. For many years I have been using a "hangman's" noose knot with much success. It is similar to the Uni. 1.) Thread the eye of the hook or swivel and draw through your line several inches. 2.) Twist the line on itself several times. This creates a loop. 3.) Thread the loop with the extra line. 4.) Pull the line firmly until you have a knot similar to the uni knot. 5.) Pull on the main line until the knot is drawn to the head (top of the eye/swivel). Cinch the knot and there you go!

Very clear and simple explanation 👏.

Thanks that was very helpful

good knots

Excellent video. Appreciated

Thank you for the info.

You taught me double uni mono to braise. Works like a charm. Appreciate your good work!

Wow that Palomar knot was really simple thanks for the info!

The Palomar knot is really easy and fast when you're used to it. On braid since it can be a little slick, do a 'double over hand knot' ..loop it twice then before you loop over the hook or swivle. Add spit so it slides better.

very good!

Been thinking about using a drop of dawn for the knot lube. 😊

I timed you. no WAY is the uni faster to tie the Palomar!!! LOL 😂😂😂😂

Palomar knot - great video. Quick question. After flipping loop and pulling hook through, it’s unclear what you are pulling to tighten; the loop, main line or tag or all three at same time? I can’t tell from video.

nice

Thank I really needed this. I switched to braided line and my hook kept coming off thanks bro

I haven't used braided line yet so when I do this will help me thanks

So the Palomar is similar to an improved clinch knot

I took your advice and tied the Unit Knot as described. Went out yesterday and hooked a monster, then the knot slipped and fish lost. I could tell the knot had slipped by the look of it at the end. Do not tie this knot with 3-4 loops. Other videos say to loop it 6 and even 7 times. Spent a lot of time heaving and rolling around as i re-rigged our setups, then i hurled my breakfast to the surface fish. Only nibbles after that, came home empty handed. I was dirty.

Did you find these knots in the instruction manual that comes with braided line? Nice video

Show how to put the braided line on the spinner that bobs in and out.

That uni knot you tied will not hold on braid line.

@bummrush3457

Doubling the line through at the beginning ensures that it won't slip. You don't do that with mono or fluro. But hey you don't have to use it. I've caught 50lb amberjack with that knot.

Your uni knot is incorrect. For floro and mono you do 5 wraps and with braid you double the wraps at 10. If you do braid with only 2-3 wraps, you risk the knot slipping.

@ek5419

Жыл бұрын

Depends on line test. For larger braid unnecessary to go 10.

Nr1. is wrong buddy!!! You should not tide to first loop! You should to that after you put the second loop around the hook! If you that you burn the line!

@FTWQ

5 жыл бұрын

Yeah you are definitely right. When I was making this video it looks like I really tighten that first overhand knot down, but I didn't intend to... And that rope material made it look like it was really tugging on that knot. Whoops!

Tough. because you closed the overhand knot before you should have

You're using bride, you don't need to wet, it wont burn

Hahah im an idiot

The knot you demonstrated was not strictly speaking a Uni knot. It was a Uni knot with two turns through the eye of the hook which Is similar to the trilene knot.

@gregkosinski2303

Жыл бұрын

It wasn’t THE classic uni because he doubled through the eyelet, but it is a uni knot. While the trilene knot doubles through the hook, the tag end will point toward the hook whereas it points away on the uni. The othe big difference is the wraps on the uni knot go around two strands, whereas on the trilene knot, it’s only one

Also you tightened the overhand on the palomar knot before looping the hook through and it should not be snugged up until winching all of it down together. You placed way too much strain on the line and compromised its integrity.

I think my IQ dropped 50 points

Your knot tying skills leave a lot to be desired as you tied both incorrectly. The second knot you tied is not a Uni. but the Fish-N-Fool knot. It is the best braid knot there is by a long ways and far superior to the Palomar knot in all line types.

Lighten up a little. He did a good job although I’d wrap 5 times on the uni-knot. That is a form of uni-knot. The name didn’t matter as much as the instructions. I know knots that have 3-4 names all depending on where you’re at and who it is.

For the F***k sake! 1 knot - a half an hour talk.

Apartment living no boats aloud. So I bank fish most of the time. Using 8 to 12 lb test.

Where can I get 10k lb braided? WTF are you fishing for??
