This video will teach you how to tie one of the easiest knots to tie two lines together, the Double Uni Knot! This knot can be used any time you need to connect two pieces of line together (such as a leader to the main line), and this video will show you the tricks to tie it quickly and effectively! We will also go over one situation when you should not use this knot, so make sure you're not making that common mistake! This is one of the most widely used fishing knots which is easy/fast to tie and can be used to catch anything from trout, perch, bass, pike, salmon, red snapper, tuna, trigger fish, mackerel... basically anything you catch with a hook can be caught using this knot! This knot is similar in strength and simplicity to the uni knot, palomar knot, trilene knot, improved clinch knot, loop knot, albright knot, fg knot, and others! Subscribe for more knots and tips, and thanks for watching!
Quick disclaimer: This is but one of many methods to successfully tie this knot, and it happens to be the best one I have found! I hope it works equally well for you, but if it doesn't, or if you have found something else that works better, I encourage you to stick to what works for you! I would always recommend practicing the knots and testing their strength yourself to ensure you are comfortable with how they work, and to avoid flinging lures into the ocean on a failed knot (ask me how I know!). Knots take practice, so make sure you're comfortable with whatever you're tying prior to trusting it with your gear! If you have any questions about the knot, please post them below and I will do my best to answer them. I hope this is helpful, and tight lines!

    This has become my go to and basically only knot for braid to fluoro, also for hooks or swivels with a single uni. Other knots I used were popping repeatedly under hard strikes or long runs with bull redfish. I'd retrieve a curly end at the swivel or hook where the knot had failed. I've never had this knot fail, the line breaks first. Plus, with little practice you can tie this quickly even in rough water. I wet the knot and clinch down the ends hard. When done right the tag can be clipped off nearly flush at that point as it won't slip.

    Another reason marrying a non-Florida girl was a bad idea idea. I should’ve have known when she never referred to my my hometown as Lakeland, instead, she calls it “The shithole where Jeff grew up.” So… the last few years has been Crappie, Shoal Bass, and Trout fishing. My knot tying for inshore fishing has been unused and lost. Being a recent cancer survivor, I’ve gotten the opportunity to kinda do whatever I want. Project- during radiation and chemo- Turn the Gheenoe into a Flats Boat. Goal- Fish for Snook, Redfish, Tarpon, Trout in the Intercoastal or the Everglades. I can’t believe how many knots I was tying as a 14 year old that I can’t even remember where to start! Thanks for the reminders and for some I hadn’t ever tried. Really helpful!

    I use this knot when tying fly fishing leaders. Vary the number of turns on a tag end to create a tapered knot. When tying braid to mono I find it's stronger if I tie the mono side first for some reason - not sure why though - perhaps the braid can cut the mono otherwise I'd the mono is thin eg 6lb

  • @JustTheLip

    @JustTheLip

    8 ай бұрын

    Interesting! I haven’t tried varying the number of knots, but that makes sense! Thank you for sharing!! My guess about the mono is just that it needs to be fully cinched down first so the thinner braid can’t slip through any of the loops and compromise the knot. But that’s just a guess!

  • @chrisosteen4162

    @chrisosteen4162

    2 ай бұрын

    I also do the varying turns, the larger line (fluoro in my case) gets less turns. Seems to work well, but I've not noticed a difference in tying 1 or the other 1rst. I'll have to try both ways a few times and see if can spot a difference.

    This knot good for surf fishing- say tying a shock leader to your main line, as in will the know get hung up on the guides while casting? Or is this knot more useful for say being on a boat and just pitching your baits out or just dropping your baits down?

  • @JustTheLip

    @JustTheLip

    Жыл бұрын

    It depends-if you’re using really heavy line, sometimes the double uni can get caught up on your eyelets. If the line isn’t super heavy, it does just fine!

  • @matthewfoot380

    I came for the FG, I stayed for the rest of the knots, eyelets aren't the problem, it's the bail roller on a spinning reel that will give you grief, as you say casting I assume a spinning reel. FG looks like the best option if your leader is significantly bigger than your reel would normally allow. (40lb leader on a Shimano 4000 Thunnus because you are straylining on the rocks and you fish with the gear you have)

    I think this knot can handle fish that size without problem. What size leader line are you working with? To me, that’s the bigger factor. If it’s really thick/heavy leader line, I find the FG is easier. If it’s something like 30lb braid to leader, I would be comfortable with the double uni.
