FG Knot - Quick and Easy

Struggling to tie an FG Knot? Heres a quick and easy way to tie it

[@thedon9670]

FINALLY!!!! Finally I have found a very clear, in focus, up close video showing how to do the twists! Thank you so much.

[@jakemyazka3246]

By far best fg knot method on KZbin... I watched like 30 videos before I found this one!!!

[@boobookittyfuck3344]

The easiest method I've seen for this knot. Thank you. I just use a double uni and have never had an issue with it, so no reason to change now since I can do that even quicker and never lost a fish due to a broken knot.

[@Fj4LiFe23]

i've actually had the fg come lose on my but i think its just due to me not having enough practice with it. my go to has been uni-uni for ever but nothing beats an fg through the guides.

[@MH-ls1xi]

This is how i have been tying this knot for the last 3 years by far best and easiest way to tie it in the field or on a rocking boat. I stop a 14 weaves and have tremendous confidence in the strength of the knot. One tip i can give you is make your leader tag a little longer and hold both the main leader and the tag leader in your hands loosely while tightening the rizutto. This helps the rizutto tighten parallel with the fg and you don't get that little kink in the end. Awesome vid keep it up.

[@Sniper_9002]

Thank you , Very easy and strong

[@jonnywaselectric]

I was waiting for a half hitch or 2, nice to see a different method. My tag pullers are very similar, I use garden hose on an aluminium rod works a treat, I'm gunna make a couple more out of dowel and garden hose.

[@BigMoneyJonah]

I know I’m late to the party here, but that is an exceptional demo for the FG. I know what I’m doing this winter.

[@Deanobravio]

Glad you liked it mate 👍 tight lines 🎣🐟

[@martingray8350]

Fruk me dead I’ve watched 6hundred million channels on how to tie this knot and only ended up frustrated. I watched this once and it all makes sense and finally got it to work thanks 😊

[@Deanobravio]

Awesome mate, so glad. It's essentially why I filmed these videos, I found the same with a lot of knot videos. I just wanted them to be easy to understand and follow 👍

[@7208021]

Saliva in the frame "not aesthetically pleasing, but practical :))" This is the best demonstration of this node that I have met. Thanks. Спасибо !

[@6Sisu9]

This has to be one of the easiest methods I've seen so far! Good job!

[@Moontanthefirst]

Best FG tutorial I've found so far! Cheers mate. 👍

[@jaredkemperfishing]

I have to say this is by far the easiest method to remember I've seen and looks easier to tie! Thanks man!

[@easyaussietarget3355]

One of the more simpler methods I have seen. I really like the simplicity of the way you twist and wrap the main part of the knot. Great tutorial mate!

[@Deanobravio]

Cheers mate 👍 yeh I've tried a lot of different ways and this is by far my preferred

[@LumocolorARTnr1319]

This is the best FG knot I have seen.

[@ricardoaviles7794]

Probably the most instructional video on this knot. Made my first FG knot, thanks to you kind sir. Now, to try it out.

[@Deanobravio]

Glad you found it easy. Ive had a few people now say the same, thats why i wanted to share the way i tie it. Tight lines! 🎣🐟

[@martinpaul6146]

Yep, along with others love that finish . Will give this a go many thanks

[@maaifoediedelarey4335]

Very interesting, as compared to the ending off with 4 x half hitches, as I've always tied it, with no problems. I'm going to give this a shot though, see how it performs over time. Thanks for video 👍.

[@kenreville9134]

Nice job. After watching several others, I like your method the best. Thanks!

[@richardtharp1608]

Awesome Explanation and Method for tying this Leader Knot !! Thanks, Richard

[@MrSlivker]

Best explanation !

[@archerlane9802]

Best video yet that I've seen... And that finish wrap is one that I've used to final wrap bow strings at the end of serving wraps. Fg knots are a bit simpler than making bow strings and they should be... Fishing is suppose to be fun!

[@Deanobravio]

Awesome mate, glad you enjoyed 👌

[@jeffreyt76]

Thanks man! This really helped a lot. Couldn’t do it for the life of me the other ways

[@jaybee006]

Awesome! By far the best finish I have seen. Especially like the use of the dowels for tightening.

[@Deanobravio]

Thank you mate. Yeh, very quick and easy 👌

[@greaserfrankenstein]

Thanks for the lesson! This is a superior finish in comparison to what i was doing. This is my new preferred method

[@Deanobravio]

So glad mate, tight lines!

[@richarddangles69]

U just made a man w neuropathy have some hope for tying this knot. Granted my 12lb leader is my weak point even w an alberto knot, doesn't hurt to learn more. Awesome stuff!

[@patrickthunnus]

Very cool, keeping things simple 👏👏👏

[@dizzious]

This is definitely the easiest and fastest way to tie it. Thanks!

[@Deanobravio]

Awesome mate, glad you liked it 👌🎣🐟

[@motooilermotooiler9597]

awesome, efficient method. many thanks mate and happy fishing.

[@tainanatua4056]

Dis is an aewsome & easy FG knot bud. Thank u im gonna try dis out

[@808johndough]

The ends of the fg have always been a challenge for me. This helps! Thanks

[@Deanobravio]

Im so glad mate. Theres many different ways to finish an FG knot, but i find this the best way 👌

[@TheZohan26]

Best method.....period!!

[@fkruger1991]

Way easier fg knot... I’ll be using this way of tying instead of the old way! Thanks!

[@weisswurstfruhstuck8523]

Wow. That was amazing. I watched like 30 FG knot videos but this is by far the best method without an electric machine or whatever needed. Just knowledge and practice. Love it. Thanks a lot ! Tomorrow is practice day for this for myself 😬😂

[@Deanobravio]

Ah, awesome mate, thanks very much. Glad it helped 👍

[@martinlanza1236]

Excellent method - thanks!

[@andychelini3206]

Great instruction for the FG. Ive seen them all and your is best. Kind Regards, Andy Venezuela

[@Deanobravio]

Thank you Andy 👌

[@Mancavedweller1]

Thanks heaps, going to try this method.

[@junserrato3165]

Subscribed!! Finally found the easiest way to learn fg knot. Nice how u lock it with the reverse uni. Many thanks

[@Deanobravio]

Awesome mate , im so glad it helped you tie the FG Knot! 👌🤙🎣🐟

[@captainjoesanglingadventur4894]

Been doing the half hitch finish with 6/ 3 each way... Will definitely learn this method thanks

[@Deanobravio]

I use to do the half hitches, but after tying 100s like this and catching many good fish, I hace never had one with just the Rizutto finish come undone even after weeks of casting 👍

[@glimmerr]

Thank you, you make it simple and It's looks very strong knot, I like it

[@bradsfishing4614]

Have caught a few sharks tying it this way knot held fine. Thanks mate for the vid made this knot doable for me.

[@Deanobravio]

So glad this video mate it easier for you to tie the FG Knot and get amongst a few fish, tight lines 👍🎣🐟

[@mohdnajibzakaria895]

Thanks. This is much easier than what i've practice now.

[@Deanobravio]

Youre welcome mate, im glad you find it easier 👍

[@jtln2m]

Never been able to tie this knot until i watched this. Thanks

[@Deanobravio]

Thats great mate! Super happy, tight lines 🎣🐟

[@lionsdejudah]

Best FG Knot so far!

[@Deanobravio]

Thanks mate 👍

[@findingjoe]

I normally use the under and over version where you don't need tight lines, but this looks pretty good. Might give it a go.

[@jonathanwahchai4350]

This is nice method, going to use it for now

[@IngkaFishing]

I am always using this knot 👍👍👍 Strong and easy #FromIndonesia

[@dannywoods3818]

Thank you!!! By far the easiest.

[@TAURAFISHINGBORNEO]

Very good.... Thanks bro, big like👍👍

[@ebttt]

I think this is the best way to finish the knot

[@hothmobile100]

Excellent video.

[@bcask61]

“Thirdeen, fordeen “ love it.

[@ramayardi]

Amazing broo,thank youu

[@dcpfishingbhr2027]

thank you bro for good idea

[@thankfullife7968]

Certainly a different twist (pun intended) on this best knot ever. I was waiting for you to throw a few extra 1/2 hitches using the braid after you cut the flouro just to hide the sharp tag end but hey no biggie. Great job brother

[@Deanobravio]

Cheers mate. Never found the need. I have fished this knot extensively with Yellowtail to 100lb, GT to over 100lb, tuna to 200lb and everything else you can imagine with no failures. The only other addition is you could hit the leader end with a lighter or Bouz lighter to bulb it 👌🎣🐟

[@Vicariousleighilive..]

Old mate in the background gettin some with the chainsaw 😂

[@Jrizy.]

Wow this is the fastest I have ever seen this knot tied. I am going to have to give it a try. Thanks man! I’ll probably go with the half hitch knot instead, but I will try yours first. Cheers 🍻

[@Deanobravio]

Yeh mate, have no troubles tying this variation in a boat, even when the weather is shitty 👍

[@jb5676]

Very nice. Well done.

[@bigdog7658]

Love that bridge method. Way easier on a moving boat. Cheers.

[@Deanobravio]

The best on a moving boat 👍

[@anthonykhalil70]

That's brilliant thx.

[@RazvanStefan]

very cool way to get those FG. I personally singe the FG with a rizzuto as well, but I like how fast you are doing those FG wraps, starting to pratice right now!

[@Deanobravio]

Thank you man, I definitely find it the easiest way to get the wraps 🤙

[@faguiarf]

Excellent and fast.

[@twopassionsfishing386]

Great video friend

[@kempysfishing7859]

Way easier than my way thanks mate

[@elicchannel2164]

That's brilliant bro..thanks

[@Kal-EL_BSF]

Nice Video man, im so helpful.

[@Deanobravio]

Glad you liked it 👍

[@barkinakan]

it works with thick lines very well....

[@greaserfrankenstein]

Good one mate!

[@lennox5786]

Wow! Thank you!

[@kitchensalive]

Brilliant!

[@firstwaswhen]

Having some problems with this knot. Mostly the hitches for some reason but I enjoy your method a lot. Can’t wait to give it a shot after work. Keep it up.

[@Deanobravio]

Cheers mate. You give it a go, practice lots. If you want to try the method with the hitches a lot of people will go 6 alternating over the braid and leader, then trim the leader, then another 6 alternating just on the braid and then the rizutto finish I do here. I just find it's all not really needed, this method here has never given me any grief 👌

[@JEJAK_ARTA]

simple and strong..👍👍👍

[@artfte]

best one yet M8.

[@koogleyou557]

Hey thanks called the local home builder big box stores. They all have 1/2 in or 3/4 in heatshrink tube for sale. They both come in a 2 pk (about 4 inches long) for like $ 3.00. Score. Of course 1/2 and 3/4 in dowel for sale as well at same store. I know what Im doin tomorrow. Thx for the tip.

[@dhanangfishing]

Very easy, thanks 👍

[@TwiztedMilitia]

So a FG knot with a bimini twist🤔! I think I like this one!

[@Deanobravio]

I think maybe youre thinking of the rizutto instead of the bimini. But either way a great knot 👍

[@ilexwang9530]

instructive video how long you have the initial loop ? thanks

[@phdyoutubedegree1939]

when using a smaller gauge line its a bit more difficult.

[@TwoFishermenfromisrael]

Thank you good video

[@tokay999]

I started to finish my FG knot like that

[@realjeffgarrett]

Legend has it, the only time this guy has broken a leader knot is while tying it

[@Deanobravio]

Better that than on a fish 👌🎣🐟

[@realjeffgarrett]

Absolutely Knot 100% I’ve never seen an FG tied this way but I’m gonna try it next time. I hold the braid end in my teeth and the rod with my feet 🤣 It works well but your way looks easier once you get the hang of it

[@Deanobravio]

@@realjeffgarrett yeh I don't mind that method with the teeth and letting the rod fall away because it keeps good tension and frees up both hands 👌

[@anakborneonew9184]

good sharing bro👍

[@Baddad36]

Yeh. Quick an easy!

[@TMonthespot]

👍👍👍👍👍Nice info

[@Captainpaulbtyhtr]

Like the Risotto finish , use it on PR knot 👍🏻

[@aNGLeR_KeTiNGGaLaN_PaNCiNG]

You must try relix knot,that's perfect knot ever👍🙏

[@mrbenowen1234]

Well done

[@magwamagwa45110]

If you put one half hitch on the knot after all the criss cross wraps and tighten the wraps first then put your rizuto finish on the rizuto will fit a lot more snug to the main knot I do like the way you make your wraps.. nice job..

[@Deanobravio]

Thanks mate 👍

[@BocaNejra]

with thinner mono is certainly more difficult but with some patience it could work too!

[@aliefishingchannel9022]

The best master 👍👍👍

[@markrigg6623]

This method with the rizzuto finish is the least smooth and streamlined going through the guides becaause the end of the leader is left exposed creating a big bump. Other methods use hitches tied in the braid adjacent to the end of the leader to create a smoother transition.

[@araldf]

interesting, could you share links of those options?

[@markrigg6623]

@@araldf Sorry I watched so many different vids I cant remember which ones. I'd always recommend watching multiple instructional vids with knots because of how much interpretation and variation there is.

[@networkguy3152]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppvdhpVrhrd-q80 4:30 mark

[@RazvanStefan]

@@markrigg6623 I strongly disagree (at least for not that thick lines), for me the rizzuto finish is the smoothest for my microguides (0.4 tip), true I tie 12-15lb braid to 12-14lb flurocarbon leader, probably your experience with with way thicker lines.

[@markrigg6623]

@@RazvanStefan Micro guides are not designed for such heavy line and in many cases will cost you casting distance.

[@hobimancing164]

This is the best💪👍

[@YaacoubKari]

nice video

[@jotube4036]

very easy.. and strong

[@jessevaillancourt7276]

if I could Id give you another like, awesome video

[@Deanobravio]

Thank you mate, tried to make it as easy as possible for everyone 👍

[@otiswinkerbean]

Got lost at the Rizutto but I will come back to give it a try with line in hand one day soon I am certain.

[@ec6617]

This is making the FG knot to complicated...way easier ways to do but this one does look very strong.

[@mattboast]

That’s a way more simple technique 👌

[@Deanobravio]

I definitely find it the easiest method 👍

[@notsure8327]

Wow this is a great looking method. Coming from bass fishing in the US your line diameter is enormous so I wonder how well this will transfer to tying with 8-20lb flouro

[@BlokeOnAMotorbike]

12lb fluoro is very thin, you'd probably be better off with a different knot such as a double uni. The FG is for joining thinner braid to much, MUCH heavier mono (like 40lb braid to 80lb mono).

[@kathingbalap]

Nice video nice info brooo🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Nassangler]

Thank you so much for this clear video instruction on how to tie this useful knot, one that I have been struggling with. I especially appreciate the Rizutto finish. However, I have one question - wouldn't it be better to tighten the main knot first, and then the Rizutto? It appears to me that you are trying to tighten the main knot through the previously tightened Rizutto...

[@Deanobravio]

I like tightening the rizutto finish first just so the wraps have something to lock up against 👌

[@turbostyler]

@@Deanobravio I prefer to do a single half hitch once I finish my wraps, then lock in the FG knot as it stretches the knot out. Once the knot has been stretched I finish it off with either more half hitches or rizutto.

[@Deanobravio]

@@turbostyler for sure, plenty of people do multiple half hitches. I encourage everybody to find a way that suits them and use that. This method negates the need for all of the half hitches
