Re: Braid to FC Knots
I look forward to snapping the tip of a micro guided rod using that as the tag end smashes into it...

Re: Braid to FC Knots
I use a double uni for tying fluro leaders to braid and mono. Its a little bit tricky with the braid, but at least i can remember how to tie it correctly when im out on the water.
The only thing better than serenity is a two stroke at full throttle!

Re: Braid to FC Knots
Try this one.
This is how I learnt to do recently and I dont think it can be made any easier. I use a few different methods depending on what I'm doing, but this looks like its the easiest method to tie an FG

Re: Braid to FC Knots
might have to try this - normally I tie a loop in the braid and clip that off with a rod in a forward rod holder on the kayak ( clipping the loop to a clip on my seat ) this holds tension and gives 2 free hands to tie the FGpurple5ive wrote: ↑Fri Sep 04, 2020 9:03 pmTry this one.

very much like the slim beauty except using a uni on the braid instead of wraps like a blood knot

Re: Braid to FC Knots
I would try some others, the uni knot is easy to tie but one of the weakest.SteveoTheTiger wrote: ↑Fri Sep 04, 2020 5:24 pmI use a double uni for tying fluro leaders to braid and mono.

I think almost everyone started with that knot when joining a braid to leader.frozenpod wrote: ↑Sat Sep 05, 2020 3:30 pmI would try some others, the uni knot is easy to tie but one of the weakest.SteveoTheTiger wrote: ↑Fri Sep 04, 2020 5:24 pmI use a double uni for tying fluro leaders to braid and mono.

Over time you tend to find more suitable ones that your comfortable with.
I always recommend the double uni to people starting out as its quite simple to learn and put to use.
In sayinv that my cousin still struggles with it, but that's pure laziness because one of the others always ties the knot for him when needed.....

Re: Braid to FC Knots
Yep.
Uni knot is super easy to tie and a well tied knot like the uni knot is better than a poorly tied GT, FG, etc.
