Hey hey hey, i knew i couldnt do it myself and my wife coulnt undersrand, PERFECT representation of what to do. And now the duct tape

I've used this technique on myself and others several times each time successfully. On 2 occasions I couldn't do it myself, and had to walk someone else through it and they also succeeded on the first try.

Is it good for chub and barbel in a river?

Would a mini vise help my clumsy hands for tying at home using this device.

Not sure that's an Orvis tippet knot?

Getting into fishing for the first time and this is the most confusing thing I have ever seen. Wow!

Great knot, thank you!

Is it possible to do another test pulling at the start and the hook? Since no fish is going to bite the end. In practice I found this knot is easier to break than I thought. I was wondering if this is the reason.

Very helpful thanks

I love it so far but how is the strength of this carrot knot compared to an FG knot? The carrot is much easier to tie, at least for me.

I always read that beginning and ending strands should come out of the loop in the same direction for the Albright knot. In this example, the beginning strand goes through the loop from "bottom to top", so ideally the ending strand should be finished by going through the loop from "top to bottom". However, you finish it by going from "bottom to top". Does this even matter? Ironically, I've seen images with the Albright knot finished both the "wrong" way and the "right" way, which is weird since many instructions heavily emphasize that the beginning and ending strands should come out of the loop in the same direction. Can any knot nerds chime in on the importance (if any) of the beginning and ending strands going through the loop in the same direction?

Very useful! With the help of this video I could use correctly my new Swiss Bobbin Knotter. If it could help anyone any further, don’t crank the drag too much otherwise you won’t be able to change the direction of the knot: it will just keep going forward even if you have the line almost vertical.

Wrapped it three times and you get a completely different shape then me, okay, i fucking hate knots.

Absolutely perfect .. thank you 🎣😎👍🎣

This is the best i have seen! Thank you!

Thank You. Strongest knot for mono to thicker mono from what I have tried. Now this is my favorite 🙂.

for lure fishig for pollock with a small soft plastic sandeel and weedless hook, is a slow sinking or a floating bombarda better?

Surgeons knot is weak in light lines.

Great knot and animation 👍🏻

Haha, what even is this even?

That was very useful - thanks

Thanks

I don’t understand your percentage. What poundage does failure occur? 90% of the rated line strength?

How long tackle is recommend to have with inline baits?

Great video. No fluff or waffle. Seaguar says it’s good then I believe them.

looks interesting. anyone know how secure it is?

For an abright shouldnt the tag end always leave the way it came in?

Shouldn't the tag end always come out the way it comes in, it is an Albright after all. Somebody please give an opinion

To me the Orvis knotis the best hands down, giving me 100% strength but....I always use TMC hooks and when I tried it on several other hooks it was as poor as the rest of them so I will continue to stick to the great TMC hooks

Thanks. You saved me from. Trip to the ER ❤

Brilliant, simple, clear, perfect: the best!

Improper technique to tie this knot

Man that's an excellent illustration. Super easy to follow and extremely detailed.

Thank you very much. I haven't fished for well over five years and had forgotten how to use this contraption in my arsenal of bits and bobs....now I remember.... thank you.

No way! This knot looks so simple!

Is there any reason I couldn't use a Palomar knot to tie a fly to a tippet? Thanks

I have used this variant on my fluorocarbon fly leaders for the last year and it performs well. Needs slow, careful and well lubricated forming down and 3 turns, not 5 turns as 5 turns often do not form down correctly and tend to bunch up. Chapstick or gink type silicone fly lubricant at the forming stage make a better lubricant than saliva. Take your time and help the dropper form into place if it is being difficult. Don't hurry things! Best to tie at home and keep in a cast carrier. Not to be attempted whilst bobbing up and down in a boat in a force 5 breeze!

It looks like a grapevine knot on steroids. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Very nice

😑

I did the same test and the computer told 420% 😂

Literally the rapala knot, stolen

very clear, 1/1 would tie

I really do like your no nonsense approach. Thank you

Wrong.

It's not 100 percent. More like 75-80 percent of true mainline strength vs. advertised strength. Most popular easy to tie knots come in around 55-60 percent though.

That music is necessary

ok, now... how do I pack these lures in the tackle box? Just disassemble them in cary each part separately? Meaning.. if i decide to change the lure, I have to wade out, sit down, open the tackle box, cut off the knot, not loose the 4mm bead in sand, wind and cold, replace the the inline lure, thead back the bead, make new knot, find the scissors, cut off the tag, wade back in the water..? that looses me AT least 15min of fishing. no wonder no one likes these lures.

eady to tie very secure knot. will not slip at all under heavy load.

Why put the leader through the sleeve twice?
