already have caught a 30# Blue Cat off of these (going to try to get a 60#+ next year). kzfaq.infoUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 Definitely very strong, and sharp. Additionally, the gap is wide enough to actually hook a fish (not always the case with circle hooks). I purchased the 8/0, but probably should have got the 9/0 (they seem slightly smaller than other 8/0 hooks). Additionally, having the point in-line helps if you drift fish. I have yet to get a serious snag with one of these hooks.

Thank you Bill Dance and Roland Martin for teaching a little mocoso kid form East LA to fish. You guys may not know it, but you saved my life.

I always enjoyed watching his shows, now days fishing shows are just a "title" with 30 min of advertising

I'm so glad you're back schooling these young folks. Thank you for schooling me back in the 90s!

I'm 40 and have watched you since I was a kid. Took some time away from fishing for a while and then started back this year. I wanted to say thank you for the shows. I have caught more and larger fish this year than I ever have because I have been watching and learning. Thank you Mr Roland.

I've always loved your shows Roland, u are as youthful as can be. Your passion for the trade is so obvious. It's what makes u and Jimmy the greatest!

I was a kid when I first watched Roland, now I'm an old man. Roland is timeless. Florida fishings finest.

This guy is the best! Watched him back on TNN Outdoors and still watch him today! What a guy. 👍🏼

You are a true legend, Roland!

Thanks Roland. I feel like I'm a better, smarter fisherman every time I watch one of your videos.

I noticed RCBS reloading stuff in the background thats cool i reload to. Love the videos keep em coming.

Exactly what I needed. Thank you for teaching the Bimini Twist Knot. I will be using it frequently.

another time tested lesson for all of us. Always learn something watching you, even if it's just to be excited and enthused about life!!

Tips from the legend priceless!

Roland you are THE best teacher ever. Thank you for all of your videos.

I grew up watching you and I learned so much in the 90s, and today It's great to see that you're on KZfaq. I still have lots to learn.

Nice job. The use of the Bimini Twist is underutilized. Folks who still pursue world records and a lot of fly fishermen still use it. Great knot. Thanks.

I really enjoy the way he shows how to tie knots. Using the salt water line is a great idea and allows us to actually see how to do it. Most ppl either dont show how to do things or if they do then u have trouble seeing it. Keep up the good work Roland 👍👊

Thanks Roland you're the best. It means a lot to me.

Super Glue and baking soda makes a strong hard epoxy. It dries in 2 seconds. It's not for fishing knots. It gets rock hard. Thanks, Mickey

Thank you again Mr. Martin! I had to come back and watch it again because I working on my fishing gear!

Roland you have shown me so much! Thank you !

Love how you show us different methods to use fishing Thank you.

Been watching this guy since i was a teenager!!

Thank you Roland, I love your videos.

Wow Roland!!! Your one of my alltime fishing heros. And info like this is just 1 itty bitty reason why. Thank you and keep on keepin on my friend.

I've known the Bimini twist for years, but I didn't know that anyone used it for tying on a single bait. I thought it was just for making two lines for two hooks or jigs. I'll give that some thought. I like light line. Good one, Sir.

I am in no way putting anyone down or talking bad about them, but I wish we had a lot more of Roland, Jimmy and Bill dance in today's bass fishing trail.. don't get me wrong, there are tons of great awesome angler's today just saying it would be awesome to have a lot more like them in today's fishing!

This guy must be great time to go fishing with he’s so full of information. Your videos are helpful and good to watch. I have only been fish for a month and I have got a lot better with his videos. Also saved some money on swivels and weights and hooks because of this guy. If you are a beginner I think you should watch this man

Thank you Mr. Martin for sharing this God bless you and your family

Roland: Thanks for using that heavy line so we could see how it's done. Fascinating and useful. On the lighter side we could use that 260# strength to pull our boats onto our trailers if our winch rope fails.👊 Stay safe, God Bless!

Thank you Professor Martin..I’ll be practicing this one! You’re closing in fast on 100,000 subscribers..lots of students in your class! 👍👍🙂

I'm a big fan Roland I love that water fishing fishing fishing that's my sport and lifting weights LOL but real talk

That knot is strong ass hell thanks for the lesson

Thank's Roland you sure make it look easy.

Thank you Roland!!

Roland thanks again for the great info like always.

Oh my God, I just did it and it works. It's really super strong.

Great demo on classic knot very effective for inshore on light tackle

My mate taught me this knot when we started fishing. We use it with the Ted Donelans leader. Thanks for the refresher 👌

Thanks Roland, I appreciate your efforts to share your knowledge, you come across very sincere, which why at the age of 60 I can say I've been a life long fan, Mike

Thank you Mr. MARTIN!

thanks Roland, great video buddy.

Thanks Roland - Hope your fishing a lot!

Thank you Roland 👍🎣

Thanks Roland!

I'd love to spend just 1 hour with you Roland in your shop or just sitting on your boat talking about rods & reel setup.

Respect Sir! You are a blessing!

Thank you so much for this tip. I have just got back into fishing after 25 years and, I have to try and learn how to do all these things all over again. One trouble I have is I do not have a thumb on my right hand so, trying to do these knots is a little challenging. But, this might be a great one for me to use. Once again, thank you.

I run a Bimini shock leader for spey fishing kings and steelhead. Never failed me it is an insanely strong knot

Thank you can’t wait to try it

I grew up watching you, and you look younger than me! This brings back fond memories of Saturday mornings

What a treat to have Roland making all of these videos! Our education and Roland's enthusiasm never stop! Roland --- these are honestly better than any of your previous television shows (which were great too). These may not be as polished, but they are much more intimate and they allow you to provide so many details that you never could before. These videos are an absolute treasure trove for both information and reminding us all of the joy of fishing. In Roland language ... "Folks" this is a lifetime of knowledge you're getting here ... and when it comes to KZfaq 10lb keeper videos, "these are what I'm talkin' about Son!!!"

Good info Mr Martin!

Thanks for help! Keep on keeping on your brother in CHRIST. Rick O’Dell. Carthage, Mo

Thanks Roland! Yes, super glue in the pack always! Whether bowstrings, arrows, and even cuts, got my super glue!

You mean so much to us ! thanks for the info

You sir are a legend! But that knot should come with a merit badge ;)

Great lesson!

Thanks for your knowledge you are the man

I remember looking at this knot as a young fisherman. I did not have the nerve to approach it until now. Where the was the Big Bass Professor when I needed him? He made that look easy.

Thanks for the guide ♥️

I can imagine you setting up someone to take their money with that knot... sounds like entry fee to me! Lol Thanks for sharing Roland 😎

Very interesting thanks for sharing this just learned how to toe a new knot

Great demo! I’m a fan of the Bimini even for braid, I’ll use an fg for most of my outfits but some heavy game and live bait setup’s that used to run plait’s are now the Bimini and never went back! I’ll Finnish with a rizzuto or just use a loop to put the tag under like binding thread

I had a shark fisherman show me this knot a few months back when I was in the keys. He used it for line to leader.

Once again, I have got excellent fishing help, from the original Master Fisherman, Roland Martin. Thank you so much. Warmest regards Mr. Martin, from Cam in Ontario!

This man is adorable when he talks about his super glue😭

Thanks will try it from N.J.

Thank you very much sir that is such valuable information!!! I used to do this as a kid and my friends would make fun of me for doing it (lol Shows them)... I would love a new tutorial for the best way to rig up after the twist so I can show the younger ones... I'm in my 30's but kids are forgetting how to do these things! If I show em a video yrs old they just idk either get bored or think its useless... smh

G'day Rolland john from Adelaide enjoy your videos and quite often use some of your tips thanks tight lines.

Bill Dance your awesome! 😉 😆

Thank you !!!!!

Thank you for share..🙏👍👍

i like it thank you i learn something New

👍🏼You the man Roland.., always wanted to meet you.. Another way if you want to ever use any other colored line, you could use a black background showing your hands and the line, you might be able to get it to pick up enough to use the light lb line..

GOAT!!!

roland should i use a clip leader when I'm casting raplas's or any lure? or re tie all my lures. all your knots are top-notch!

Around the foot. Behind the knee. Across the elbow and over the shoulder. Dang, I wish I had been better at playing that ol' game Twister.

I just watched one of his old knit videos that’s so weird

Thanks

I’ve been tying it for 10 years. It’s everything he says it is. The only thing that I would add is that you should practice it. Get some cheap junk line and tie it over and over again until you have it down...

Good friend 🎣👍💪

Swindle's Jig knot is also a great knot. Check that one out.

nice 🤙

I'm going to try this n0t at Sabastian inlet next time I go

Im not sure if i can lift my foot up that high

Well noted!

Great

Ive always used an improved uni knot and the line always gives before the knot area does

What knot do you use to tie it to the hook or swivel?

How to tie it with braid line and mono or flourocarbon?

so how do we tie it to our lures after?

im confused, if your leader is stronger test than your main line then your main line will break first but what does the leader do for you??

Mr. Martin what do you think of a triple surgeon not

What about tje improved uni knot?

Roland could you do a follow up video showing how tie a leader to a main line using a Bimini Twist knot.

I love spending 20 mins tying a knot when I go 🎣

He is the truth at this shit

Once u tie that knot what knot do u tie to the lure ?? Of is the lure put one before u tie the twist?
