The best fishing knot for braided line - modified Uni knot

The Uni knot is the best fishing knot out there for most applications. The modified Uni knot is the best fishing knot for braid. It is similar to a Uni knot with a couple of extra steps to make the knot less likely to slip with super-slick braided fishing lines.

Thank you. The Unit Knot is the easiest to tie for my hands and I'm glad the modified uni isn't complicated at all.

Just started fishing with braided and this knot is very nice, pretty easy to learn after a few attempts of having the loop/tag end too small. I will continue to practice!

Worth a second comment since I'm watching it again ... Coincidentally, I'm teaching my son to tie knots so I can fish instead of repeatedly tying on tackle for kids! My uni knot method isn't the easiest to demonstrate. Yours is very easy though. I'm so sending him this video! Also going to get some practice in with your way. Probably the cleanest method I've ever seen for a uni.

Thanks for all these great videos. I am learning a lot from them. I am starting my journey into braided line this weekend.

I've developed a style for tying the uni knot that I've never seen before, I just kind of worked it out. The idea being that the line parts - tag end, loop, yada - doesn't get away from you in wind, and it makes it easy to tie in the dark. I figured this way out because after watching dozens of uni knot videos, I couldn't find a way that I didn't have to fiddle fart around with loose stuff that got mangled by wind, and required intently staring at it - which is HARD in 3 foot seas...

Your way sir - very well may be even better than mine. It seems like it'd be easier to do a cleaner job under all but the roughest conditions. It only took me 8 years to find this video! :D

Trilene knot and then 2 over hand knots, works good

[MrCami]

AKA Fish 'n Fool Knot. Why it should be good only for braided line, please? I use it also for fluoro line with great success.

[onsenguy]

if showing a braid knot, why use hard to see mono?

[AggelosMantos-zien]

Hey nat, I use a metal leader to avoid bite offs, is this knot good to use on the swivels that come with em?

[JA-gxhb]

I find the two turns going through the eye will overlap 100% of the time, it's very difficult to keep them parallel. Do you think keeping them parallel is necessary?

[Moontanthefirst]

So the ‘modified’ bit is just twice through the hook eye instead of once…..correct?🤔

[DeepRelaxation]

Cant i just make a regular uni knot for my braided Line?

[coreyhamilton]

Should I be tying the modified UNI with mono?

What’s the Best hook and Bait to use to catch blue gills?

[Keenbeaver]

Lost my damn whopper plopper on a bush after 4 casts.

Isn't a uniknot where you push it doubled through the eye and do a half square knot and loop it over your hook 🤔

[_gwdo_]

Why do some double it through the eye and then do everything the same just with double the line?
