I’ve been using this knot with braid for decades! I had no idea it was a thing, or had a name. I’ve had hooks and traces break on me before this knot has. In fact, I can’t remember a single time when it’s let me down.

Hey just curious, why do you specify its the best knot for braid? Is it not the strongest knot for mono or fluorocarbon as well? Is there another knot that's better for those?
@thisnamesbetter
@thisnamesbetter 21 күн бұрын
Different knots do test at different strengths with different line types. I believe he ties a double pitzen for fluorocarbon because fluoro is a harder material and can cut into itself with certain knots. Just a guess though.

Used this knot for yrs. When I was younger I also ran the line twice through the eye tying the fisherman’s knot or clinch knot. I always liked my lines doubled through the eye. Glad you like this knot. 👍👍

I've used this knot for many years without knowing its exact name. I can absolutely confirm this knot is super strong, I use it specifically for direct braid connections to frogs and jigs. The initial double loop really helps prevent any slippage, especially with slicker braids.

​@beanieweenie9543 i agree with you that its a modified uni knot. I have been tieing it since the 90's when i started fishing and my dad showed me and he has been using it longer than that. He started fishing in the 60's but wouldn't have learned the knot till later. Braided fishing line was invented in 1953 by YKG (according to google). The uni knot is credited to a Norman Duncan in 1960's. A little history lesson from goggle. The braid predates the uni knot there for you couldnt have tied a modified uni before braid hit the market.

Thanks for the awesome content Ill definitely give that knot a try FWIW I have been using the Polymer knot on braided like starting WAAAAAY back in the 1990's using Berkeley Fireline and now with my favorite and only braid Power Pro and I do not recall EVER having a Polymer knot fail me while using braid and I have fished using braided line every time I fished for nearly 30 years. Straightened and broke many many stuck hooks using braid pulling loose hooks stuck in wood or rocks but do not recall ever braking off at my knot using braided line and a Polymer knot

You should tie the Fish N Fool knot with fluoro and make a video to see how it holds up. Your fluoro video shows the Double SD Jam knot to be the best. I wonder if the FnF would beat it?? FnF vs. Double SD Jam using fluoro would be a very interesting video.

Used this knot for more than 10 years, at those internet times it was called fish-no-fool knot. It was the easiest to tie in winner's tests. Also it is very good for monoline, did not have to see its fail. Last season brought other person's fishing tackle caught by bushes (carp stole entire rod).

You have to remember that Knot wars was sponsored by Berkey and used their testing machines. The Fish-N-Fool knot won in 2 out of the 3 line types and the Berkley braid knot didn't win any of them. Here is the Data from the Knot wars Series and you decide what knot really won. Fish-N-Fool, Mono 20.54 lb. Braid 19.44 lb. Fluoro 15.2 lb. Berkley knot Mono 19.8 lb. Braid 17.4 lb. Fluoro 19.6 lb.

Hi with this knot going over 100% have you done a test to find the true breaking strain of the actual line you are using. This would show how generous the specification is from the particular line you are using for your testing with.

I agree on most lines. I bought a 50 lb.reaction tackle line. This knot breaks in the knot. Where as the modified clinch knot holds true and the line itself breaks away from the knot. Always experiment with knots at home and not with a big fish. But,thanks for the insight. Happy tight lines.

The heavier the line, the fewer turns on the knot. I do like knots that go twice through the eye. The first time I ever tied a Springer I caught a 298.8# YFT and 2 days later I got a 321# using the Springer too. It’s basically a Spangler (2x2) knot that’s tied incorrectly! I must say that I’ve never tied direct to a hook or lure with braid!

I wondered if changing from Monofilament to Braided changed the knot selection. You tested 7 different knots using either mono or fluorocarbon and the San Diego Jam won. I actually like the fact this knot won for braided. It's so much easier to tie. I changed to an SDJ when I saw your test video. I guess either would stand the test of time when forced to perform?

You didn't test the Fish-N-Fool Knot with the Fluorocarbon. Since the Fish-N-Fool Knot beat the Double San Diego Jam Knot on the Power Pro Braid. I am now curious to see how the Fish-N-Fool Knot will compare to the Double San Diego Jam Knot with Fluorocarbon. You know, you want to know also. I really enjoy your videos as they are very educational.

I've been looking for a strong knot for braid that didn't slip. I started with the palamar and went to Swindle's double shindo and it has never failed me. But it makes a huge knot and not very good when using a Texas rig punching grass. This should make things better.

The Double uni knot with three tag lines is even stronger.. We used 30lb braid and tested it 10 times with 5 wraps using basically the same setup and everytime the line broke at about 35lbs one even went to 39..the line always broke in the same spot as well, about 4 inches away from the knot..!
