The chart above shows the double x2 uni failed in the 15-17lb range. Easier to get good results.This like every knot comparison I have seen is scientifically lacking. As I was reading through the comments, I saw the surgeon knot mentioned as an alternative. This knot has amazing strength and after some practice was fairly easy to tie. But it’s on my list of knots to test out. Tie a spider in the braid and then an offshore knot to the leader. Form a loop in the reel line and hold it against the shockleader. Then I thought for sure it was going to break the line, break the rod (cheap Calico Jack) or break the reel (Stradic FJ 2500). Also, thanks for the tip on tying the FG knot without using teeth… I’ll give that version a try. We use 20lb Suffix braid to 25lb Toray and often the Owner/Daichi hook breaks before the line/knot does in this combination. Add it to your quiver of fishing tricks.I guess I’m the odd man out here. It is as small as your best knot and also the tag is nonexistant.Hey Tommy, thanks for the great comment. I would like to see the six turn Yucutan knot (double line) included in the test.Hey John, I tested the FG knot against the Yucatan knot on a doubled line (doubling via spider hitch & bimini twist if multiple tests), and the FG knot tied on the single line held up to the Bimini/Yucatan combo as well as the spider hitch/yucatan combo.The one doubling combo I found that beat the FG knot on a single line was the doubling of the braid with a 30+ turn bimini twist combined with tying an FG knot with the doubled line.I use to use a Double Uni however since I converted to the FG, Ive had no “Unexplained Breakaways”! The only situation I’ve seen so far that does not work well with the FG knot to connect braid to fluorocarbon is when the lines are closer in diameter… a 30 lb braid going to a less than 30 lb leader can’t dig the necessary groves to lock in on the leader (same with trying it on a wire leader… if it can’t dig the groves, it won’t hold). When you want to tie braided fishing line to monofilament line, such as when you are connecting a mono leader to a braided main line, the best knot to use is a double uni knot.This knot is simple, fast to tie, and very strong. I had to retie on the boat. This knot is suggested for monofilament and fluorocarbon lines. It relies on the tightening of the braid around the fluoro for its strength. Just wondering because I love flouro, but I use mono on my tops for this reason. It also does not have a smooth transition from leader to braid due to the doubled leader line.Luke. It’s very much appreciated. I tighten my knot with hitches before cutting mono and adding two hitches.after tying the fg knot and then finishing using a series of half hitches I find the half hitches unraveling after a couple of days. I applaud your testing because it gives anglers more information, but the information is not universally accurate. Losing the fish to a lI tie a bead on the end of the main line so my teeth can hold it without jaw cramp. I do not use pyramid weights often, but when I do, I use a swivel and tie the braid to it (using the Modified Uni) and then tie the weight to the other side of the swivel with a short strand of mono that is slightly lighter than the leader line. Next, I tie my leader line (either 50 or 60 lb fluoro) to the loop in the mono as if it was a hook eye using an Orvis knot before tying the hook to the other end using a Kreh Loop knot. I heard that was one of the strongest knots …
3 down and 10 up or 7 down and 7 up seem to the be strongest I have found but I fish a mix of 20# Suffix braid/ 25# Toray fluro and 50# Suffix braid/80# Seagur fluro/105# wire.
you will be pleasantly surprised . Instead it is just given to help fishermen understand that they can’t strictly rely on such tests if their fishing involves conditions different from those of the test, like line sizes/types etc. Quick question on using topwaters with flouro. In general, I tie a heavier braid to a lighter leader, when tying this knot. Fish Backcountry and blue water. The Modified Albright (Alberto), loops down and then loops back up. I’ve been an FG convert ever since I was taught how to tie it. Tighten the reel line coils and slide up to knot in the leader. I use 80-120lb braid and about the same in a leader .Yes, the FG knot as well as the others can all be used with heavier line. Pull gently. . The rig got stuck on the wreck. How did the surgeon knot line up?Hey Kyle, thanks for the nice comment. The Modified Albright (aka Alberto or the Paulus Albright) has been tested by numerous people usually to 97-100 percent of the line strength.
