[@donnietran5944]

This is a best video and very clear show u how to tie fg knot. Thank u

[@DaveANeely]

I love going fishing

[@tomorrow1333]

hands down, probably the most clearest and most understanding video of the FG knot!

[@josephrichardson4128]

Have u watched the ifish one

[@cartierbones4768]

@Joseph Richardson the IFISH one is a nightmare, tying this to your foot.. wrapping this around your hand etc etc. follow briggsy! Rissuto finish is stronger and more efficient than a few half hitch knots.

[@josephrichardson4128]

@@cartierbones4768 i did it pretty well ig but i am starting to get problems with it

[@DiabloOutdoors]

One of the best for the Fg that's for sure and THE best for the rizutto finish!

[@charlessanders4337]

Salt strong has a good one as well.

[@CaptainSloose]

Once again- it’s spring time here in the US and I need to rewatch this video to brush up again … this is hands down the best fg knot video on the internet.

[@Briggsy]

Stoked for the awesome feedback fellas! I was trying to work out how to film this so that it was easy to follow and in the end found myself sitting on the floor hunched forward with my arms chicken winged out wrapping around the camera haha. Seemed unco at the time but when I watched the footage back it looked pretty great!

[@robertm4050]

Hey Briggsy, I am sure you probably already know this, but if you pin this comment it will be the first thing everyone sees. Great video and good to see some new content on your channel. Can't wait for part 4 of the new MT series it has been awesome.

[@Briggsy]

Cheers mate, yeah I forgot to pin it! Part 4 of Stranded slows down a bit in fish action but is still a cool day. Then part 5 we go freshwater fishing up some stream/waterfall zone and that was really cool, I hope it comes out on camera as good as the day was!

[@robertm4050]

I am super excited to see you guys in some freshwater. Wish we had fishing like that near me. I am going to cast net a bunch of bunker this week to make chum blocks out of and then to make fermented garden fertilizer too. May not get to fish for GT, so I need to make due with huge schools of bunker, large striped bass, and big bluefish runs.

[@MrChaosRegins]

Love your content pal always good! I live in Ireland so no real need for me to learn this knot (Blue Fin tuna fishing I guess ) but I watched it anyways that's got too stand for something!!

[@ZeusFaber91]

Very good, best fg knot tutorial online!

[@RikkiTikkiTavi290]

No idea why this video has so many dislikes. It is easily the best FG knot tutorial I've watched in every way. Maybe just jealousy?

[@yogiidrew2632]

Not sure if I’ve already commented, but, your FG knot is how I practice mine, and it has NEVER failed me, I would lose my hook before I’d lose my FG knot, Thank you, been using your style for years and has given me a ton of success, I still come back to watch as a refresher when my brain decides to sh*t itself 😂, I’ve also referred this video to so many people!! awesome video and great knowledge. 😊😊

[@nazeernazim9843]

Dear friend you are the only man who showed tying FG knot very clear and filmed professional way I ever seen I am thanking for you

[@paulthomas1513]

Searched for ages different ways to tie FG. This method by far the simplest and haven’t had a knot fail. Cheers Mate!

[@Briggsy]

Stoked it’s working for you Mate 👍

[@paulthomas1513]

Hey Bud, been seeing a bit on media re the sc knot finished off with the rositto knot. Some are talking it up but I can now tie your fg almost in the dark after being 6 deep in XXXX bitter cans and never have fail! What do think of the SC?

[@lascannon]

The best and easiest to follow guide to the FG knot (with or without the rizzuto finish). Thank for this video! Still a hard knot to do, especially for lighter lines, but know I actually know what to do.

[@RobertTaylor-vd2mw]

imho the rizzuto is only to bury n cover the tag end , but leader needs to be trimmed just after last half hitch , ( how ever many we do ) cause rizzuto doesnt really add additional strength to knot , BUT , adds protection to braid as it passes thru guides

[@joshjameskiwibushman]

nailed it, that half hitch in the tail is an interesting addition, cheer

[@scott5764]

Absolute best fg knot tutorial ever!!! Clear concise steps and because of how you shot it (lighting, backdrop and settings) I could actually see how the knot takes shape.

[@RadReelingFishing]

I just started using the FG right before I caught my largest fish ever from shore. I'm so glad I made the change. It seems like people find there individual ways for finishing off the knot. I always enjoy your videos and the Morning Tide adventures too. Thanks!

[@syedmehdi47]

U made it look so simple. There are 1000s of FG videos out there but yours is the best to follow for anyone who is new to FG.. keep up the work mate 👌🏻👌🏻✌🏻

[@jamesmackey8332]

Finally, an FG knot tutorial where I can actually see what's happening. Good show.

[@bryce8174]

This is the stupidest F'ing knot ever

[@kemuelkenazbicar4237]

tried almost all fg knot and different types of locks but this is THE most effective and THE most strongest ive ever done. thanks man

[@Capt.JorgeMoran]

No need to look for any other tutorial on the FG...this was flawless.

[@jestione]

Best knot I have come across so far with good explanation, on one knot I used for 5 sessions with 4 fish over a meter including my PB Jewfish. My new go to knot that I actually enjoy tying.

[@FlyFisherGolfing]

210409, I don't understand 489 people don't like this knot. Well done Briggsy keep the video coming! Cheers Man!

[@aaronn.1010]

Thank you for the crystal clear up close video shown at a reasonable pace so someone can learn. So many knot videos seem like they filmed it across the room tied with 4lb test or are trying to do it so fast to show how good they are lol. Great content as always,I wish you the best!!!

[@TRW072]

That is THE best FG demo on KZbin. An excellent 'version' of the knot obviously based on putting tackle to the ultimate test. Very cleary demonstrated and articulated. Thanks for sharing.

[@crowman5936]

I've watched a handful of FG knot video's and have to say yours is the best with clarity of tying the knot. I've been using the Uni to Uni for over 20 years in the salt with no problems but I'm going to use the FG this year to compare. Keep making instructional video's now and again as we like to see what the other side of the world is doing in the fishing world.

[@heysogo]

Man Briggsy this is by far the best knot video! Not just got FGs but all knots! Your first person, portrait style angles and dark background help us viewers really see how it’s done. I would love to see you do it with the knot you use to tie your leader to your lure!

[@Briggsy]

I just use a Uni Knot with 4 wraps to lure but get asked all the time so I'll have to make a film showing it!

[@heysogo]

Briggsy thanks! And yes please do a video!

[@michaelcampbell9866]

Briggsy, That is seriously the best described and easiest FG that has been done. i'm a 47 year old and yourself and the Morningtide are the best fishing ever. My 7 year old and me fight to choose with episode we want on you tube lol. I would be stoked to fish with you guys, i'd love to fish with yourself light for bream and jack's. Thank you bra, frothing

[@oldhickory3028]

Thanks a ton Briggys for not only showing us how you tie your FG knot but doing it slow enough to follow along. I really wanted to learn how to tie it from you since I've seen the kind of wear and tear you're knots go through and hold up. For bass fishing here in Florida I've always used the blood knot. But now I will most definitely be using the FG knot for all my saltwater applications. Thanks bro.

[@dahhhkness9706]

I've used this knot for about a year now. I fish sharks from the beach when I can and this knot has never failed. Thanks briggsy

[@RobertTaylor-vd2mw]

lol sharks on mono leader , i use 3mm chain as ive had em bite thru 7*7 S/S wire back when I did land based , but how many sharks do u wanna catch n release

[@dahhhkness9706]

@ I catch and real ease every one. Haven’t caught one over 5ft to be fair but yes, 300LB mono to flex over the sand banks, with at least 1m of 250lb nylon coated wire leader. Your LOL is just ignorance crossed with arrogance Rob, straighten up champ.

[@johngr1280]

the most clearest and most understanding video of the FG knot!

[@fifis101]

Good to see you use this method. Best way to do the FG as it keeps it tight the whole time you tie it.

[@32degreestowing76]

I’ve been scared of learning this knot So much easier now ive watched this vid! 🤙

[@jermainejohnson8345]

You guys are very informative, I've watched 100 of videos on this knot and couldn't get it, watched this vid last night and got it on the first try, and I feel comfortable with the knot, keep em coming

[@SethBricel]

I’ve tried a bunch of different FG techniques and this video is still my favorite- thanks for making it!

[@ananndt]

I've used this method for my FGs since this video came out. it has never failed.

[@hoodlum7210]

Best fg video on KZbin by far.

[@xXclusive808x]

The best, clearest and detailed FG tutorial available. The Risotto knot is a great finish for the FG. Thanks.

[@marymitropoulos2937]

Hey mate, seen a heap of fg knot videos before this one and I was struggling. You make it look so easy. Your video was the only one I could follow easily and I've done four of my rods already. Champion effort! I'm bloody stoked I've finally learnt how to tie it. Thanks!!!

[@tyronjohnson6840]

This is the only Braid to Leader knot I use every fishing trip, I've probably used it 50 or more times now and not once have I lost a fish due to knot breakage. Thanks briggsy for the wicked knot yeww 🤙🤙

[@TheAutisticAngler]

Best ever video of tying the FG knot. Thanks Briggsy

[@tolpacourt]

Best FG knot tutorial I have found on youtube and I've watched dozens.

[@Briggsy]

Cheers Bro!

[@ajgeiger7417]

Frothy man. That was the best fg tutorial I've ever watched! I'm a bass fisherman from NE and was introduced to morning tide through Jon B and I'm so glad. Keep it up!!

[@brendanmoseley6452]

Great content bro I am 37 and never had a dad to teach me and have just started 😍

[@gazza1252]

Thank you mate. Hands down the best mono to braid knot I’ve ever tied. Much appreciated.

[@Mahogany11]

That extra toss over the main line and leader before the rizutto is the icing on the cake for me, keeps the twists together before cinching it down. Great video briggsy!

[@alexv7273]

Dude, i have to say that i loved you just by that video. Im a fun of JonB and i saw your chan in his discription, i was scrolling in your chan and saw this video, and i was like.. pffff ok one more how to FG... but... DAMN! I MADE IT! FIRST TIME EVER FOR ME MAKING SUCCESSFUL FG KNOT. Thank you man. Keep it up.

[@overlander99]

This is by far the best way to tie FG knot!!! Never failed me!! Thank you so much!! Subscribed!!

[@josephkim6037]

This is hands down the BEST fg knot tutorial there is on KZbin. I learnt how to do it straight away, very simple yet strong knot. I used to wrap braid onto my fingers and tie a fg for eging or light spinning but it never really worked for heavy spinning setups. Thank you so much Briggsy, you’re a legend. I will definitely send you my BIIIGGGG catches on instagram. Frothin for the next vid! #1 Briggsy fan from Sydney! YEEEWWWWW🔥🔥

[@Briggsy]

Stoked it helped so much mate! Yew!

[@ashrafdaniel24]

Best tutorial fg knot ever. Seriously. More clearer, slower and clean. Thank you!!

[@phillipraskatos9116]

Thanks mate just tied my first FG Knot - followed step by step perfect first time.

[@HuwagSalangin]

This video of fg knot has been the easiest to follow of all!. I'm so glad I found your channel

[@arielee343]

Thanks for the tutorial man,it's help me more easy to follow these step.I use your FG's style from the days i learn how to cast until this day and i caught a couple of fresh water fish without any problems.Thanks man.

[@nemesisslr]

I am so happy you did this. I used to have trouble with heavier lines and the FG knot. I use 150lb mono to 100lb braid for Conger fishing. I use such heavy mono as I am fishing over rocks and it is basically a rubbing leader. I found the ordinary knot would come undone but with this one I landed 4 Conger to 21lb in one night.

[@Briggsy]

Really stoked to hear it mate!

[@MacbookPro211999]

the best and most practical fg knot video

[@tristandeshon5297]

Love your demo of a fairly difficult knot to tie …… I have used this video multiple times as a reference and sent it to friends

[@owengray5778]

Definitely the best tutorial on the actually pulling up of the knot I've seen- nice work man

[@Briggsy]

Cheers Mate!

[@snaxs2000]

Today the FG knot goes mainstream. Thanks for spending the time on making a high quality video on the FG. The lighting is perfect.

[@douglynch9012]

I think you're the first person I've seen that addresses the sharp edge of the tag end of the mono. I think melting the end is great way to solve that issue.

[@chalkss]

I have been struggling with fg knots and this was the one tutorial slow enough and detailed enough to teach me. Thanks legend.

[@pakde8002]

Had the same experience...every now and then just check back in for a refresher course. Posted in May 2018 and currently at over 600k views. Ok 200 views were from me because I just couldn't get it right, but it's still monumental for a video about a knot. Actually, as good as your fishing action videos are, your (albeit, few and far between) tutorials are even better IMHO. Happy to say I can now tie nearly every fishing knot including the world's best FG knot aka Briggsy's FG knot. Thanks a ton Briggsy.

[@amoshagan7645]

One of the best tutorials on tying ive watched mate . frothing to get out and try my new skills on the coast for Uk Bass mate

[@davidcollins1705]

Thanks! I’m used to tying an FG on my 6lb braid rig. Just got a new reel with 50lb braid, you really have to pull it hard to make it stick - max power basically. It was letting go during the cast or unwrapping at the end. Your KZbin and russiuto version fixed it. 🤙🏿

[@vinsentpeteh4886]

Great video Briggsy, one of the best out there. Wanted to ad another small improvment at least it is to me. As I was tying the knot when got to the part where you need to burn the leader to create that cup which prevents the knot to slide off, couldn't get the cup to be smooth so it doesn't cut in the braid under tension. So I took a NAIL FILE and semoothend the leader into a nice round shape. Don't know if anyone else had the same problem but thought it might be useful. The ledaer is 0,52mm thick, maybe that happens only with smaller leaders. Cheers and tight lines :DDDDDDDD

[@Briggsy]

Good idea mate, I think the brand of leader makes a fair bit of difference to that end shape after burning as well.

[@jhuntnfish6872]

Thank you first time fishing in the salt last weekend. Used your fg knot with 65lbs braid to 60lbs mono. Was able to get a 6 foot black tip reef shark to the boat. Pulling it around a marker buoy cable with no problems approx weight was 100lbs and took 150yrds of line on first 2 runs or more. After doing 4 or more rods I noticed that if it kinked a little I just pulled the mono back strait be for I trimmed and finished the knot. Thanks agin Briggsy!

[@michaelrosenquist6293]

Thanks mate, probably the best FG knot-demo I've seen so far. I'v watched a lot of your fishing videos, and I've seen the fish you've pulled out from the rocks, so I would feel very confident to try it your way. If it comes undone, it's probably because I didn't do it right. This knot takes time to master. Heading to Rangiroa soon, we'll see what happens. If you've been there...tips are welcome ")

[@Briggsy]

Hi Mate yeah just test the knot a bunch of times (pull it till it snaps) and make sure you're happy with it before takin it out on the water. Never been there but looks amazing from what i just googled, Good luck!

[@RobertTaylor-vd2mw]

yeah , biggsy nails it , before lots of blah blah blah have started , nice cam work n lighing 👍👍

[@ImpactGlassArt]

That is the most clearest way of tying the FG knot, I have got it right on my second try which was on the 25lb braid and 12 lb mono. It could be difficult on the thinner line and my confidence is strong on the thick line. Many thanks from China.

[@greatwhitesfishingadventur2273]

Briggsy , Best FG Tutorial Ever !!!! Cheers !!!!!

[@eliandzacsfishin765]

nice videos michael

[@nickschmitz7044]

Absolutely the BEST and most clear video of this knot anywhere. Man helluva job man please do more videos on different knots

[@thor_6886]

Very interesting, Briggsy. The Salt Strong guys (US blokes who've done a lot of knot contests etc) do two half hitches after the 20 turns before letting off the pressure. Then they pull hard on both mainline and leader to do the discoloured thng. They say not tightening at that point is the number one issue that causes failure with the FG. Then they cut the leader tag, then more half hitches and optional Rizzuto. I've never seen the order of the Rizzuto and the half hitches done your way, and I've never seen the tightening done hard on the Rizzuto. Very neat job, so i'll give it a go! Funny how you, Brooksy and John Cahill all have different methods.

[@cartierbones4768]

Best video mate. Every time I needed to re-tie my leader I’d watch this video. At first it was taking me the entire length of the video to tie the FG so about 15+ minutes each time. Now after a bunch of practice with this vid I can smash em in a few minutes. Super stoked and thankful. Would also encourage anyone new to the FG to just keep doing it over and over even when you feel like you don’t understand it.. eventually it will make sense. Coming from a uncoordinated goob like me, you got this!

[@Karpediem28]

Haha that was sooo clear. Puts every other tutorial to shame. Good on yah 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@lenny9395]

Been trying all the various ways of tying the FG knot and MAN! Awesome most clearest and easiest way! Tried doing it a couple of times and each time it worked out perfectly! Thanks dude, Appreciated!

[@ryancook8836]

Briggsy bro awesome technique. I've been trying to tie this knot many different ways and I tried your way one time and it's the simplest way I've found to do it. Thanks for the video love the Chanel keep it up brother. Tight lines

[@daviddellariva]

Thank you for showing the importance of setting the knot! It’s the only way the FG works properly! Nice job!

[@kyeporter6676]

best FG video watch it and then tied my first ever FG

[@justinellis2411]

Last comment 4 years ago.... until now!!!. I'm a triangle fg knot guy as I find it easier but I'm really digging the finishing knot. I really like the idea of no hitches on the main line. Great idea!!!

[@Pre_K]

btw You are one of the best filmmakers on youtube. Even a bit better than jonbRoll. You've got those sick soundtracks. Lookin forward to some psycho fishing and epic edits on your next film.

[@camgod4085]

Have tried this videos version 3 times but never got the last reverse loop step until now, genius! So stoked I finally got it, this is the best braid to fluorocarbon FG knot out there!

[@jaradwhite9352]

This is how I tie mine as well. I tried it with half hitches to lock it in and they always came undone until I found a video doing it like this. Good Job.

[@davidvera2820]

Hands down the best step by step video to make the best strong " bad ass " knot !!

[@kreamsdreams4210]

This taught me how to do my first fg and I’m stoked

[@Stickinit]

Thanks for the tutorial. From Colorado mountain tiny trout angler having this info in the tool box for my limited ocean time make it better to feel a little more comfortable on the big fishing rigs. Thanks again.

[@VeritasEIREAequitas]

Frothing first... cant wait for that episode 4 of stranded !

[@Briggsy]

It's a more chilled day but still some good fish, part 5 we go freshwater fishing which was pretty rad!

[@robertm4050]

WTF... Gotta let people know there is a spoiler! Part 5 with freshwater would have been a huge surprise. It is all ruined for me now....

[@lachiema8173]

Just want to say thanks Briggsy! I love my flathead fishing and seen numerous FG how to vids but most didnt explain as well as you did so i couldnt be bothered learning but came across your video and just tied my first one thanks to just your video, because it was explained so well! Thanks again brother glad I came across your channel!!

[@bartgrider6895]

Best video on youtube for tying FG knot!! Thank you

[@911blackadder]

One of the best content in KZbin!

[@TheKala270]

This is the best FG knot and it worked for me. It stays in tacked, strong and clean. Thanks Briggsy

[@mjh5437]

"intact"

[@JESUS_Is_KING573]

Cool video man. Got it first time. Thanks👍

[@Delbzy]

Skitzzzy! ive been kooking the FG for way to long time to learn it, cheers bra yew

[@muhammadhakimi2515]

Im using this fg knot almost a years...easy tu tie up and strong...and i more confident.... thanks mate... love from Malaysia

[@eddifahmed]

Best FG tutorial, after this we can name it Briggsy's knot not FG any more.

[@geo1698]

Has it ever failed on you lule has it ever broke i want to do it but idk it its so good

[@MrBmfg91]

Without a doubt the Best video out there for figuring out the rizutto finish. Thanks man

[@zachjozwik9805]

best how to, using this for Murray Cod this summer :) Thanks briggsy-

[@philash6399]

Brilliant version of this knot and a great video showing it. The blobbing of the leader is something I've always done and a carry over from UK carp fishing rigs. Nice one Briggsy.

[@hairyscone]

You're the man Briggsy

[@sv2296]

This was the most well and InFocus explained FG knot on KZbin

[@SilentPestSolutions]

Your the man briggsby!!😂

[@erixsjimenez1506]

This is one of the two best videos I have ever seen! For being clear, well explained and well knotted

[@aldindzekic3787]

This is the best fg knot video every made so easy to follow and great job explaining I just made my first fg know thanx a lot man

[@bretthadden6985]

Briggsy I've thought my son this knot he is 12 and he nailed it . Step by step the best fg knot ever. The briggsy knot

[@lonely182guy]

How good was this video!!!!!

[@greatsouthernoverland]

Best FG tute Briggsy, clear and to the point..... even I could tie a ripper FG, thanks mate!!

[@patrickgreenfield1361]

Hangin out for Stranded part 4!

[@wuquanchi]

Thank you for the video Briggsy . I wanted to share my way to melt the tag end of the leader. heat up a needle or hook and then touch the tag-end just enough to melt it, it prevents burning the braid instead of the monoline.

[@TheFishingStyle]

Been looking for a GOOD video on how to tie an FG with a rizzuto finish. By the way what camera is this filmed on the footage looks sick.

[@Briggsy]

Stoked you liked it mate, the camera's a RX100v5, if you follow the Morningtide films it's the camera I put in the water housing for the slow mo shots on those films and also my main vlogging camera. Another good one that can get similar shots to the RX (but for half the price) is the G7Xm2 which both Cavy and Brooksy use for their vlogs, it just doesn't have the same high frame rate/slowmo stuff.

[@TheFishingStyle]

Briggsy Yeah cool I thought it was filmed with a DSLR, cool never thought a point and shoot could deliver footage like that.

[@steelethetidefishing8495]

You've recommended this before but didnt think to ask. Do you use the "underwater bundle" water housing or did you find a better or cheaper aftermarket housing? Curious how it affects the view and such. I know the one issue with gopros and the design of the lense housing is it catches water so it's hard to get a clear underwater to above water shot sometimes..

[@steelethetidefishing8495]

Also, would you mind sharing what settings you use for those slow mo shots? I know it goes up to like 900+ fps but sometimes theres downsides as well. Esp if you have to switch at the moment you dont always have the time to do that.
