hello everybody welcome back to fish
that won't quit today I'm going to show
you how to tie the uni knot it's a stay
tuned
alright so the uni knot is a fantastic
not to learn it's great for braided
fishing line as well as monofilament or
fluorocarbon so with your tag in you're
gonna place this through the eye of the
hook and then give yourselves a good
amount of tag into here to work with I
like to do about eight to ten inches or
so and then with your mainline go ahead
just run that to the right now I like to
just pinch these two lines close to each
other just like so you're gonna be
making a loop with this tag end what
you'll do is just run a loop down low
and lay it right above the two lines
that you're pinching and then go ahead
and pinch that like so I like to make
sure these two are nice and close to
each other because with the next step is
is to run this tag end around the two
lines and through this loop you just
created with the heavier line you're
going to do about four to six wraps with
a lighter line six to ten wraps with
this line I'm going to do about five
wraps so with the tag in come through
the loop here and around the two lines
four one and two three four and five so
you should have it something that looks
like this you can go ahead and just pull
on your tag end and then knot will start
forming up on your main line make sure
not to Snug this as hard as you can
quite yet just get it to a point where
it's forming your knot just like so I
like to lubricate this knot section all
the way over to the hook section here
we'll do that right now and then what
you can do is just pull on your mainline
this knot will start working right to
the eye of the hook and that's why it's
important not to cinch that knot down at
the beginning because if you do it'll be
really hard to tug on that and it could
cause line breakage or line damage
but once you get it down to the hook
shank you can really pull hard on that
tag end and main line and that knot is
nice and secure at this point so with
your tag end go and cut that off you can
cut that off as close to the knot as you
like
well you're left with just a completed
beauty knot and now I like to
demonstrate with a monofilament line so
you get to see how that looks
[Music]
alright so for the monofilament we have
a twelve pound test here we're gonna
place that tag in through the eye of the
hook give yourselves a good amount to
work with about eight to ten inches or
so and I like to pinch the two lines
over here to keep have these a little
bit more parallel with each other now
that your tag in go and create that loop
like before and lay it right on top of
the two lines so you should have
something that looks like this tag hands
going to wrap around these two lines
here and through your loop here we do
about six wraps total so down around the
two and up four one two three four five
and six now at this point go and pull
your tag end and I'll start forming the
knot on the main line but don't fully
snug this not quite yet I like to
moisten the knot up to the hook here and
start slowly pulling on the main line
this knot will start moving toward the
hook shank
now when you're close here I like to
give the tag end it gets good pull and
then back to the main line and then
really snug and pull that main line just
set that knot on the hook now you have
your tag end here to cut off what you're
left with is the completed uni knot I
