Mike Fox Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 I struggled as well with these Steve, and now used a "modified allbright" which is fairly quick, has the simplicity of a doubled-over blood knot, and doesn't slip. It's a bit bulky, depending on the diameter of your rubbing leader. Happy to show you if you like, but you can decide for yourself.

Maverick Martin Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Happy to show you the knot I use which is easy to tie and doesn't let go, probably the same as Mikes Martin Paul D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
great white Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Likewise Happy to show you the knot that I changed to a year or so back It has proved to be better than the Knotless Knot or modified Allbright that we used before.

Rob Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Some times over less harsh ground no know needed as you can tie straight to swivel and then hook length. Not sure of the knot name I use, but be interested in Charlie Chapman's - are you able to find on't tinterweb? Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
