You probably worried about your treble hook breaking off because your not using a very efficient knot. The bowline is a great knot but at about 60% of the line strength your 20lb line is now worth about 8lbs.

[@Bfishin]

Any other recommendations ?I haven’t had any problems ?

[@bryan34wable]

@@Bfishin keep using if its worked so far. For me I almost always tie the “improved clinch” which has about a 95% breaking strength of the line capacity.

[@Bfishin]

Ok I will try the improved clinch knot I thought that the loop will give bait more range of motion and less restriction of movement but the clinch knot is stronger and thank you I will try it

[@bryan34wable]

@@Bfishin if your looking for better range of motion try the “loop knot.” I’ll use that for jigs or lures. but in a trap rig your range will be limited anyways because you have to use a snail knot as your first hook.

[@Blueskies-h3e]

Why do you like a loop at the treble end?

[@Bfishin]

It gives live bait more action and freedom to swim.

The snake slides out of the pond, slings around the branch, slides back into the pond - same knot, different memorizing, different name for this knot: palstek in northern europe countries.

[@Bfishin]

Ok that good to know and it’s a great knot

[@joaquinlopez997]

Is that rig also known as a cheater rig ?

[@Bfishin]

I don’t know I have never heard it called that.
