@erikvaldur3334 2 жыл бұрын

Great knot. Been using it for decades. Only issue I've found is when pulling through any weeds or debris in water some inherently snags on tag end cut since it's sticking up towards your rod. Snell is better for not grabbing things. If you're fishing clean ground and water this knot is fantastic I also use it for a minimum bottom fishing rig. Make tag line as long as you want the hook to be from your sinker and place sinker in main knot. Great for Toutag where they'll spook at too much hardware.

@joshyingling 4 жыл бұрын

I learned this knot at a Berkeley fishing gear demonstration, they had a line knot testing machine and were inviting people to tie their favorite knots and see how they hold up. Surprisingly many knots made the like break at a lower strength than rated, but this knot was the strongest by far and you can tie it blindfolded in your sleep. I really only use three knots for fishing. Uni knot, Palomar and "7 twist through the loop" we used to call it. Just found your channel great stuff man.

@Rose.Of.Hizaki Жыл бұрын

For braid, it is suggested that you use a _'double palomar'_ knot to prevent any potential slipping. I mean the knot itself is already super strong but adding a second _'overhand'_ at 1:58 before looping it over the hook and synching down will make it even stronger and the knot is so simple to tie that adding the extra overhand doesnt take any extra time to tie. Your call however - its how i was taught and my hooks tend to bend or break before i lose any lures to underwater snags.

When do you use the Palomar knot vs the uni knot or clinch knot etc to tie to hook/TA clip/lure etc? For stripers for instance, which knot works best with the abuse it gets... (as a reference, I am tying usually my 40 lb fluorocarbon onto my clip or whatever as my leader coming from 30 lb braid, so some knots feel cumbersome to tie with leader that thick) .... what do you recommend?

@FTWQ 2 жыл бұрын

Kyle I'm sorry for the late reply! Short answer: Uni knot for me. In my experience with salmon and steelhead fishing, you honestly can't go wrong with either knot! The Palomar is typically considered a stronger knot over the uni knot. However, I personally do find it cumbersome to tie the Palomar in more instances over the Uni. But here is the thing with comparing these two knots... When you cast out the Palomar knot or cast out the Uni knot, which knot do you just feel confident in? If you have confidence in how you tied the knot, you can't go wrong with either choice. I hope this helps!

@FTWQ 4 жыл бұрын

I see what your talking about, I apologize for the inconsistency. The main goal is to make sure the loop at the end of the process is above the hook eye. I would aim for the way it looks with the actual braided line demo, the second time around. But either way the knot will work perfect. Hope this answers your question, and thanks for the comment!

You should stick to the original way and actually it's probably the easiest and strongest knots you'll ever find and you'll put more stress where it's not needed just stick to the original way because if it works why fix it. I've used this knot for years and never came undone plus the whole point of the knot is in the strength and simplicity of it.

It's hard to really know. My guess is It could be that the hook is just a bit heavy and the line cant hold it perpendicular. It could be the pound test line also is to light potentially . In my experience it doesn't have to be perfectly perpendicular, just out enough to keep the bait off your dropper line. I hope this helps!
