Awesome!
As I was following your instructions, I paused & replayed a few times. When finished, my knot looked just like yours.

FYI - joined 40# / .013" sufix 832 eight fiber braid to 20# / .0185" zebco omniflex mono.
The mono is backer, about 20 cranks, to prevent the braid from slipping on the spool.
Rod & reel are from a tag sale 30 years ago. Olympic 2065 6-1/2 ft & Daiwa 7350RL.
I'm 65 yrs old, so I got my free CT resident fishing license. So now I'm going to walk down the street and cast a worm into the river. Might go buy a couple of lures too, & try them.
Thanks very much for teaching me how to join the two lines together❤

I've tried this knot....GOOD STUFF

[Imcatchinnotfishin]

Thanks for doing it step by step bro! You made it so much easier by just doing it slow and step by step took me like 6 vids to find a good teach haha

[cagonzal]

Thank you for teaching me something today. I'll try it looks so simple

[davemmxr]

Good demo the heavy test makes it easier for the people who have never done it to see

[enthusiasticfisherman]

I don't know what it is bug your videos are SO GOOD!

[milanh]

Thanks brotha! Good luck on the water.

I've never joined dissimilar lines, but for terminal tackle I use the Palomar 90% of the time. Great tutorial Jack! Thanks for the lesson. Bent rods & tight lines.

I think the super glue is to help it slide through the guides.

[trygvehansen]

Thanks man, just lost a 35$ jigg because i didnt bother to tie a leader to the brade. This helps alot!!

Thanks for the vid. Just tied 200 lb braid to 200 mono and its solid. Cleaner and easier than the fg

I find the TP knot superior as it forms a cone and flows through the guides better..jmo..the Allbright is good if your in a hurry and leave it outside the tip of the rod.

[TheLawlessTide]

Great video! Do you have roller guides on that rod? If so how well does that knot slide through them?

[peteredwards]

These knots look great when you are sat in the comfort of your own home, but how easy would they be if you had to re-tie on the bank with the wind and rain howling into your face? That's why I use a triple surgeons knot to attach my braid to fluorocarbon. It's super simple and hasn't let me down yet

Have you tried this knot while fishing for 500IB Marlin? I fish for mostly marlin and run straight braid. But was looking into adding a top shot for added drag through the water. If you have a better trolling knot I would like to see it. my braid technique works but I can always be better.

[MrMaxpimp]

I fg but the gt version which is with the rasuto finish

[jayvanhouwe]

Great vid! So this works on lighter line?

[gapoangler]

Great video from a new subscriber. Question: I have #80 braid on my Avet LX what size mono top shot do you recommend and how long? Mainly fishing for Yellow tail or Blue fin. TIA

[xFREAK]

Not sure if it’s just me. But it made my braid super weak at the connection point with this tie. I was able to snap my 50 pound braid with about 10 pounds of force at the connect every time.
