Great video and we all should appreciate the perfect lighting and excellent camera angles. No weird shadows. Audio was clear and concise. I don't care the content, if you're putting out video at this quality, the people will watch.

Just baffles me how these vids still use real line. Just get two different color braids or thin rope to actually show the knot. Not floro...😅

RP is short for Royal Polaris a boat that John Collins is a deckhand for in the san diego long range scene. hence it is also called a John Collins knot. ten up ten back pull till near, BUT you are supposed to jerk it for the final tightening.( you cannot slow pull till the end, or it will not cinch right) the southern california tuna fishermen use this knot for tuna over 200 pounds.

You, sir, are the first person other than myself to give credit where credit is due. People on the internet dont understand how this knot is universally used day in,day out here in San Diego and SoCal. 200# is no exaggeration. Good on you

I've used this knot enough to know that I prefer the FG knot, main reason is the FG goes through the guides alot smoother. If connection knot is not going through the guides then what they call a RP knot is fine
@alcav544 жыл бұрын
Wow. I’ve been tying it wrong. I’ve been running the braid same direction thru the loop. It still seems to work but it does make more sense the correct way. Thanks 👍🏻
@seagoat6513 жыл бұрын
Hes confusing people by saying run the knot back through in the opposite direction.He should have said run knot back out through which it came in.

Rp knot is faster and easier to tie on a moving boat vs the Fg and holds up plenty well. At least that is my experience. And yes I know that some people can tie a Fg in record time on a moving boat. RP knot is just plain easier and no extra tools required.

This knot goes by multiple names. RP, Alberto (crazy), albright. It is most definitely the easiest and best knot for braid to leader. The key is after the knot is cinched down. Is to pop tighten multiple times all 4 tag ends together at 70-90% strength. that way the tag ends can be trimmed down to nothing to fly through the guides. Hands down best braid to leader connection ever.
@mountaintroll78644 жыл бұрын
alberto knot. also if you are using any of the 8 carrier braid esp the lighter lines use 10 wraps and finish the knot with 2 whip finishes and a dab of super glue.
@baseballgod80654 жыл бұрын
I thought this was called the Alberto Knot? I have tested it against the FG Knot and there is no comparison. The FG always wins in a strength test and it also goes through the guides easier.
@mmmbass60684 жыл бұрын
Mark Mcdonald you are dead right sir. The tag of the FG (both the leader and the main line) faces back towards the reel, so it never clashes with the guides. And it’s strong and slim. People just gotta learn to tie it!
@JoeSykes944 жыл бұрын
Yeah it seems like the leader line kind of just lays in there within the braid
@craigjorgensen58954 жыл бұрын
With the FG was having a small issue with the braid tag end getting a little frayed after some use, making it a little rougher through the guides when reeling. A SMALL drop of super glue where the knot finishes solved that nicely.

Yes the RP knot is very strong, and it is also a small diameter so it casts nicely and goes through the guides with ease.

RP (Royal Polaris) Knot only needs five wraps up and down, and you don’t have to hold your finger because you can run the line back through either way and the knot will hold. Don’t believe me search RP knot and watch where this knot came from. If It can handle 300 lb super cows on long range trips it can handle a bass lol do 5 wraps people no need to overdue this knot.
