Chef Posted June 27, 2023 Posted June 27, 2023 What fishing knots do you regularly use. Here is my list Palomar braid to swivel Albright braid to mono improved clinch mono to swivel and clip perfection loop dropper loop triple surgeons when fly fishing
Otto Posted June 27, 2023 Posted June 27, 2023 For braid to mono: a Uni knot For mono to swivel or lure: the Rapala knot, essentially an improved clinch knot For braid to lure or swivel: the Palamar knot To make a loop at the end of the line, I double the line, make two overhand knots and tighten up. I’m not even sure it’s an “approved” knot, but for the few times I use it, it has not failed. I’ve tied dropper knots, but always have to look it up to remember how to do it. I don’t fish that way often enough to remember it, and if I was in a boat and couldn’t check, I’d probably just tie a line off a swivel to make the dropper. My father in law used three overhand knots to tie his lure to his line; I never saw him lose a fish from a bad knot. Chef 1
