This is a very simple way to tie two lines together, but I thought I saw a comment that asked how do you perform the tying sequence when one line is attached to a reel, and the other line is wrapped around a spool that you plan to use to spool more line onto the reel once the two lines are tied together. At least that was the jist of it. I did this very thing this morning. I tied an almost empty spool of line to another spool of line, same type line, and wound one spool over to the other. I saw an answer to the above question in a reply to the original question, "make the loop large enough to wind line and spool together through the loop. That's what I did. It was a bit awkward, but I managed to do it. Not sure if I want to use line with a knot in it to spool a reel, but at least if push comes to shove, I have some line I can use.

Thank you. I used this knot to get more line on my spool. I had a really bad birds nest that used half of my line. I tied the new line and what was left on my spool together with this knot.

I knew there had to be something better than two uni-knots tied together! My grandson asks me why i use swivels? Because I never saw this knot. It can't get more simple for an old buzzard!! First two tries works great!! Thank you!

Very simple. I used it to tie braid to a monofilament leader. It's been holding up fine.

What if one end of one line is attached to the reel and the end of the other line is the new full spool?

[stephenmarshe]

Great knot, i been using it to tie good line to backing for you ton of money using backing rather then 300 yards of premium line.

[jeffreybower]

but, , , what if you need to remove it!!?? do you cut it or use a needle loosen it up and undo the knot!!??🤔🤔🤔🤔

[ricardocuevas]

Bro thanks I was replacing my fishing line but then it got tangled so I had to cut it off so thank you

[robertyacoub]

Is this knot as strong as Yucatán knot?

[markabdullah]

just 3 will do? or, could it be stronger if I made it 5... just asking... ✌

[BeeTheBee]

how about when the two lines are long lines.

[The_Xny]

Will this knot be strong enough for bass?

[lesianson]

Only problem with this is if you have two very long lengths of line, be difficult threading a line thats 300ft three times through the loop. Anyone know any alternatives?

Save the hassle and just use a double uni
