Captain Jack Sprengel of East Coast Charters shows step by step how to tie a stronger, better version of the FG Knot for connecting braid to mono or fluorocarbon leader. This is the best braid to leader knot for spinning rod tuna fishing and big game offshore fishing.
I’ll definitely try it thanks
Who is the numbskull who thought it would be good to repeatedly cut away from the closeup? We can’t see shit when you leave the closeup!
Dummy u should thank the good people of on the water
you have a dentist in the family?
Now that’s great information many thanks and great fishing.
it looks like a great knot
but do we have any time left to fish ?
I use it all the time. It is actually an easy knot to tie once it is learned.
It certainly takes a little more time than others, but the profile, or lack of it, makes it worthwhile.
You do it at home the night before.

Great knot.
Thanks for the update.
Good looking knot. Thanks OTW for putting this video together!!!
Total overkill. The original FG has 100 breaking strength. Why would you add 26 steps to it? Id like to see you do all of that including melting the fluoro in 4ft. seas with a 20mph blow.
Thanks for the info, I have always put a few more half hitches after cutting the tag end as the mono end can catch on the guides at different angles. I had been going to try hot melt glue on the cut end but will try this instead.
