Fishing knots?

[Angler16]

What knot would you guys say is the strongest and easy to tie? Im doing this knot where you make a loop and then wrap around the loop six times sorry if this doesn't make any sense but ye its a good knot but i was wondering if there are any better suggestions?

Thanks

I always use the Palomar knot. Google it and try to learn it, it is not to hard at all.

Palomar

[fishinggeek]

Anybody every try the Bucher power knot? It looks like an improved palomar knot. Though it's a bit more difficult to tie, maybe it's better. I haven't used it yet but it's on my "to do" list.

I use the uni knot and find it very strong..... Here is a link to an animated knot site

Great instructional video, Roy. That pretty much explains it all.

Im a big fan of the trilene knot. Use it all the time except if i am making my own spinner rigs, or salmon flies.

 

I am going to try the rapala knot though...i like that idea

[muskymike]

Another for the Palomar.

[modny]

i've been using the clinch knot since i can remember..

 

gonna try using that palomar knot for a lil while though

[chickenhawk]

Palamar is the way to go.....really strong knot and easy to learn

[bpsbassman]

Polomar all the way!!!

I just started using the trilene knot this year, and it took me 5 minutes to learn and has not broken yet.

I like the Trilene knot for mono, palomar for braid.

Palomar is easy to tie and maintains strength at the knot - what else do you need?

without out a shadow of a doubt the pal........... uni knot, most versatile knot out there.

[Burning Babies]

The Palomar comes out as the strongest out there, based on every test I've seen, but personally, I find it a PITA to tie. I've been using the Trilene knot for years, and stick to it most of the time.

[sunfish]

Palomar, uni..trilene are all great knots. I find that the Polamar is the easiest to tie. Uni to Uni is great to know for leaders...

[ccmtcanada]

Anything with a leader I like to snell my hooks.

 

Mono, I like the improved cinch knot and with braided line I go to the polymar knot.
