Ahhh! Why didn't I think about using the handle to hold the main line! THANK YOU for this fantastic tip! I've been losing my hand/finger dexterity for several years and it's becoming very difficult for me to tie knots. Your method for the FG is the best I've come across.

Indeed the best FG knot video with binding technique so far! My finish are only 2 half hitches and 3x through uni knot without burning the ends - still tight. But the handle-drag-technique a real enlightment since 2 years of FGing!

The absolute best video I've seen on tying the FG knot. Thank you!!! P.S. Let me add...one month later I just successfully tied my second FG knot. The first was 20 lb fluro to 30 lb braid. Today was 8 lb fluro to 8 lb braid on my crappie rod. I know...overkill for crappie but I did it for the ease of casting braid. Thanks again for the great video!!!

Nice tutorial. Beautiful, reliable, and strong knot. Personally, I think 40x is an overkill. With that many, it becomes hard to get a good cinch in the lines. I do mine about 15x. However, to each their own. Thank you for sharing. Best to you and your wife. Tight lines 😊

Nice video resulting in a beautiful knot! I too use the reel handle knot to create tension. I didn't think about loosening the drag a bit--will have to try that if it results in a smoother weave. One comment though--you must have kevlar skin on your hands. When pulling the braid and leader in opposite directions to tighten, I would put on leather gloves. I have cut my hands, esp. the braid side, when tightening bare handed.

I’ve watched numerous videos looking for an easier method of tying the FG knot over the last few months. I too seem to be lacking manual dexterity and good eyesight due to age and had almost given up on the FG knot. Fortunately, I found your video. Your solution of how to put tension on the main line helped immensely. I just finished tying two FG knots using your method and my KZbin search is over. Thank you.

My fav.knot to use with the connection. Tip for a super tight knot. Grab an Old Solid foam rod handle/cut in half and wrap That around your Braid and Floro to snug the knot down. I love this knot and will Definetly use your method untilizing the rod handle,never thought about that ... Thanks
@deweylee2449
@deweylee2449 2 жыл бұрын
Another problem with just going overboard with the wraps is you heard the snap when the knot was passing through the guides. That has a tendency to actually wear out your guides as well as loosening up the guides from the locking knots when there are more than what's needed to lock the knot as well as it being alot longer than needed.
@losthorizonfishing107
@losthorizonfishing107 2 жыл бұрын
I’ve used that method for years and have never had an issue with it. I think if you had a rod with micro guides, that might be an issue for sure. I’ve caught thresher shark, Black Sea bass, and yellowtail using that method and as I mentioned earlier… there’s never been any issues with knot failures or function. 🎣😃

Best and easiest tutorial on tying the FG know. I've been tying the know for over 2 years with mixed results but no longer. I'm going to use your method. Thanks. But your last couple of minutes of where you live, boats, pier etc is making me jealous. And if you tell me there's tons of fish in your bay, I will have to give you a thumbs DOWN. You made my day on tying the FG knot and then ruined it by showing where you live! LOL

You only need a little bit of tension on the main line. You want to make sure the drag on your reel is set really loose.

FG knot has befuddled me. Many promises of easy FG have never been easy for me. I will check this out, however. I settled on the Polaris (Alberto) knot for braid to leader, and the simplified blood knot (very simple) for polycarbon to polycarbon. Extending the subject. I have fallen in love with the Uni for terminal. So easy on the water, and I have never had one fail.

Hi Ben… it’s a cutter made specifically for braid, as well as fluorocarbon and monofilament fishing line. The company is called Boomerang and it’s one of the few cutters that really does cut braided fishing line cleanly.🎣😃

Hi David. I really like Boomerang Snips. They’re inexpensive and they cut braid really well. They typically from $10.99 to $12.99 on Amazon. Most fishing tackle shops stock them also. They have a cool little clip on a retractable line, so you can attach it to your PFD.🎣😃

I really don't understand why people use leaders, it's such a gimmick. Using just mono to the hooks / swivels and it hasn't failed me and a lot of other people in a very long time. If your line breaks it's due to a bad knot, fish that are not rated for that line or it rubs on something and even fluoro will break. All you need is good knots to the sinkers, hooks etc. Fluoro isn't stronger than mono and it's been proven, it's not more clear than mono as well.

Flourocarbon is denser so it sinks vs floating mono. I use Mono, I use Flouro, I use braid. They all have a purpose.

I really don't understand why people use mono. Using braid to leader hasn't failed me in a long long time, all you need is good knots :-) It's not a gimmick, with braid I can adapt to any situation and use mono or fluorocarbon leaders at the business end in any length I choose, 1 foot or 20 feet, and in any strength or diameter. Braid can last years and offers way more sensitivity, better hooksets, and longer casts. It's just a better and more versatile system than straight mono or fluoro especially more so when you consider the new sinking braids that are hitting the market.
