Uni Knot Fishing Knot


Uni Knot Fishing Knot

The uni knot is a very popular fishing knot and many fishermen consider it to be one of the best fishing knots for tying a leader to swivel.

It is a reliable general purpose fishing knot and is very easy to tie.

To start form a large loop with a long tail to make tying this knot easier

  • Pull the knot up slowly for maximum strength.
  • Wet the line if necessary to lubricate on stiff nylon.
  • If the knot jams while tying cut it off and start again.

Practice makes perfect!
