I would say if you're strictly looking for a better knot for your guides, the FG Knot. However, I personally just prefer the Alberto knot in general because it is easier to tie, and I feel more confident with the alberto knot in the water. Hope this helps!
I notice that the diameters of both braid line and Fluorocarbon line matter the most. It is much easier to cinch down the two lines when having smaller diameter braid line.
So I'm not sure what the name of the knot is, so I'll do my best to describe how to tie it. With the tag end of the braid, lay it over the main part of the braid forming a cross, with the tag going upwards. This will create a hole on the left side. With the tag end, wrap it behind the main and through the this hole you created. Make sure you are looping back towards the FG Knot. Make about 4-5 loops this way and then cinch it down towards the mono tag you cut. I hope this helps!
This is my first time seeing this know, I’m used to tying a uni knot and this looks easier. Especially on a boat in the middle of the bay with the wind blowing.
Fishthatwontquit yeah that’s the one I’m used to, I haven’t had any problems with it so far. This one seems a little easier, just a bunch of repetitive loops.
First off, awesome video! I'm following your video step by step, and everything looks great, but when I get to the final part of cinching the braid main and mono main, the mono just slides right through the knots. Any recommendations or ideas of what could be the issue? I've tried multiple times. Thanks!
I've had that same issue. I keep coming back to watch the video when I re- tie. The first time I did it I had a solid know and now the floro slips through when I try and clinch it down I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong
Best video out there for the fg knot man thank you
Thank you!!!
Best video I have seen for this challenging knot
That's awesome to hear! Thank you!
wow so easy, can't wait to try it on a moving boat, thanks so much! :))
🤣🤣
Bahahahahaahahshshshshhshshs
easier ways than this my friend
this knot was easy for me, the only knot that I had a problem was the perfection loop, great video
Thanks tokay999! I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I couldn't figure out how to start the knot, but you showed it perfectly. Awesome video!
Awesome! I'm glad my video helped!
🍻 Kamloops BC Canada. Awesome knot
Cheers! Awesome to see people in Canada watching!! 🍻🍻
Can you use this for flouro to flouro while spooling?
Which one do you recommend more if i do casting through the guide ,fg knot or alberto knot?

You make something so easy difficult
I notice that the diameters of both braid line and Fluorocarbon line matter the most. It is much easier to cinch down the two lines when having smaller diameter braid line.
Nice video, thank you. But can you tell me what kind of knot I should use for the finishing knot to cover the mono?

@@FTWQ I understand. Thank you very much. Will try it tomorrow!
@@neyzenilkay Awesome! No problem!
I believe you are looking for the Rizzuto finishing knot
This is my first time seeing this know, I’m used to tying a uni knot and this looks easier. Especially on a boat in the middle of the bay with the wind blowing.
Hahahaha. Honestly, I much prefer the Uni knot as well.

I figured it out it's the clinic knots at the end you have to do it a certain way you have to go over and under not under and over
looks like that mono would eventually slip right through,
Its not hard its how you do it that’s making it hard there’s other ways to do the fg
He is doing it wrong
Ooohh boy your giving yourself a hard time , you’re doing the wrong way. 😳🙄🙄🙄
This is an easy knot for you to tie you got teeth😧!!
Everyone who claims they have made a good instructional video is on crack 5th video and none of these work
I followed the first 4 steps and nothing happens this makes no sense
