Hitchless FG knot with rizutto finish by Mb Custom Lures

- The legendary super slim FG knot tied with a self locking rizutto finish. One of the best ways to join leader to braid. This method is quite fast once mastered. Ensure both knots (FG and rizutto) are tensioned thoroughly.

What sort of a sad sack would give a video like this the thumbs down? One of the best FG knot demos on you tume, IMHO.
Love your comment. I guess you can’t please everyone.
Sometimes I get bad recommendations. Give them a thumbs down so you don't see them again. It's UA-cam. Give someone a like and you're bombarded with similar videos.
Thank you for clear and concise video! Aloha!
This has to be the best FG knot video which I have seen. Thank you.
you need to research more then! This is the dumbest way I've ever seen!
I have to agree. Been using multiple hitches to finish but this seems better and faster using just the rizzuto
i love this account. you are a hell of a fisherman. we're on the other side of the world and i've fished for 30 years and i'm picking stuff up from your vids. the internet is a beautiful thing.
Best video of how to tie the FG I have seen.
Each step was clearly explained and the reasoning behind each step was great.
My new 'go to' FG.
Thanks heaps 👍
Awesome thx for the kind words
10 months later still coming back to refresh on this knot. Great channel bro
Thank you!! This is sooo much better than “animated knots”. I’ll be following this
Great fishing video. I'm trying to learn this knot. Super clear, precise and concise instructions. No b.s, love it.
Thanks for the love. I hope the knot serves well. I recommend you add a half hitch between the fg and rizutto
Excellent explanation...exactly what most tutorials are lacking
Great Knot, Great Lesson, and Demonstration ✊
Brilliant! You've helped make tying this knot easier
Thank you
Very slick method for wrapping the FG.
its been 5 years and I just watched the video :) thanks friend!
Thank you very much. for the wonderful, and powerful Node! 👍
Great explanation of finishing the FG with a rizzuto instead of a double half-hitch. If you tie a braid to fluorocarbon, this is a great video to watch.
I tie the FG knot a total different way. Watching your video is definitely the way to go. You make it look so simple. Practice practice practice. I'm going to give this a shot thank you for sharing 💯
Cheers for the love. Put one half hitch between the FG and the rizutto. This is a good way to improve the knot some more.
@@levihua1980 🤔😮 I would be curious to see a video with the solution given by you. with that half hook. I think you're absolutely right. that helps the thread!
@levihua1980 absolutely not, the half hitch WILL weaken the braid. That's the exact reason this HITCHLESS version is presented here.
Awesome vid bro ! This has made it very simple and actually more simplistic for me. I tie them the same way but with slightly different methods and this has made it easier
I have finally mastered the twisting and weaving with your wrist/pinky. It took a while but your method makes it so easy to tie the FG and it is way better than the traditional under/over method with tension. I added 1 half-hitch before the rizutto to lock the FG in. Thank you for such a great video.
Awesome to hear. Thx for your feedback
I haven't. Lol
Evet kesinlikle haklısın .++ (I added 1 half-hitch before the rizutto to lock the FG)
This method is really quick but looks like it wastes a lot more braid on the tag end. You also need really thick leader for it to hold out like that.
The fg knot is also really good for light line for freshwater and ultralight applications. I have it tied with 6lb braid to 4lb mono on my trout/panfish rod right now, and the only way to tie it is with the pinky method, just because the line is so floppy and unmanageable
@baiseduezcke2295 if your drag is set correctly, your braid should never weakened unless it's visible frayed
Thanks, this is the right advice, once mastered this finishing rizutto knot leaves 1/2 hitches for dead ! , thanks for sharing.
This is the best/easiest one of these I have seen.
I use the same knot, its epic, never failed me.
Music to my ears.
THANK YOU very much my friend. I've used this finishing knot now for like 3 years. When tied right, it's unmatched. I wish I could get his weave technique down, but I don't use 40# cable either. It's hard to do with 10#. The over/under method works though. 👌 Spot on mate
Holy crap lol
Dang that is the fastest twist style of fg I've seen lol
👌
You are most dexterous. Good video.
Well done mate. Thank you for sharing. Cheers 🦘🇦🇺
Thx for the tutorial! I also don’t use half hitches as it adds bulk to a knot that is smooth. But on JB hollow core, I like to run the leader up into the hollow core around a meter, then whip the joint with light weight braid. Super smooth!! BTW, those are some sexy plugs behind you !😍
An excellent way to tie a FG..
Excellent explanation and clear video. Straight to the point of how to do this knot. Thank you.👍
Sweet alternative to standard wrapping!
Thanks so much for this video!
Awesome tutorial my friend 🙋♂🙋♂
Thank you for sharing. Im gonna try this.. Will be very useful on my fishing trips and vlogs.

great vid lee
Awesome method thanks
Dude, you got that FG twist down pat! Look like your fingers were on a gymnastics pommel horse.
Best comment I’ve read in ages
ty, superbe explanation
Thanks well explained and ill give it a go "liked" , cheers
Çok başarılı güzel anlatım çok teşekkür ederim 🇹🇷
Thank you 🙏 👍
When I melt the tag end I put a heap of spit on the end of the knot and it protects the braid and my fingers
Perfect and simple ending... :))
When I'm trying to tie a thin knot I finish the wraps, half hitch, tighten, 6 loop lock knot, cut your leader material an 8th of an inch and heat it up right after roll your fingers in the hot leader. It don't hurt too bad you get used to it. You want the tag end to melt into the top of the knot but be very careful. I pinch and use my nails as a heat shield. Then cut the braid and do the same with that making sure you just get that to a ball point. I've tried every single way and for me this knot is as much about strength as it is about being thin and this is the way to get that really really thin knot that only barely brushes the top guide. I've strength tested it and if done right between this and the rizzuto The line breaks in the middle. I'm not downing the rizzuto finish I just think this way is so much better.
I agree I like one half hitch after fg too.
Wow super smarter way to tie it
Very clear
I just realized what MB stood for ROFL.
I hope the name was deliberate.
at first i was like "what could be so funny, and why wouldnt you share?".. then i got it LOLLL
Master baits was the old name. 😁
Does this work with lighter lines? I tried with 20lb braid to a tapered shock leader (15 - 50lb) and find the leader very flimsy and hard to get the wraps around. Maybe I'm missing something?
FG (FineGrip) version 2 👍🏻✅
Thanks ...make things clearly.
Fantastic video, clear and concise! The links below for the "line tensioners" aren't working. Please describe what you're using and/or how to make these tensioners. Thanks!
Any cylindrical object with a grippy finish you can get a good grasp on. Could literally be cut dowel pieces wrapped in electrical tape if you want to make something. I just end up using whatever tool with a grip pad that's laying around. Hammer, pliers, whatever.
Awesome knot. But try it with 0.13mm line and 0.26 fc.
i know, with thin fc it is almost impossible
I'm looking for a lighter to use at the beach for rounding off the tag ends. Is that a piezoelectric lighter you are using, or just a regular butane lighter?
Regular butane. Any jet lighter is great in the wind. The electronic lighters are effected by wind 😓
i know where peligic persuit took this from now!
Is that a special lighter for burning fishing line?
This is so amazing thank you
👍👍👍
Please, did you make those line tensioners or can they be purchased?
Hi, You can easily use wooden dowels that can be purchased at a hardware type store. I have done this and cut them to the desired length and wrapped them with some tape for better grip.

@@mbcustomlures7496 link not working?
why the leader under the braid twist and become curly when I tighten the knot ???
la paix ou l'épée a few reasons. Could be wraps on the fg aren’t close enough together as your wrapping the fg there should be no gap between the wraps. Also could be over tightening the knot.
But it is normal to get some leader twist just not a lot.
Hi also have a question on the like tensioner where did u purchase
thirtyfathoms.com/ not the same but they look really good. The ones' in the tackle shops are 40$

I have issue with rizzuto finish, usually rizzuto breaks during apllying tension to finish fg knot, braid is Shimano Kairiki 20lb with fluo Sunline 35lb!?!?
Most people do the half hitches then rizzuto. But it seems the rizzuto is enough from your demonstration.
Also be careful with the line tensioners. You don’t want to wrap the line over itself on the tensioners. It will dig into itself. It needs to wrap around the tensioners without overlapping itself.
Why not 1 half hitch to hold fg knot from loosening before starting rissutto?
because its tie on the leader to make strengh force
I do one half hitch and have no issues.
👍👌
If you tension the finish too much first doesn’t it limit the tightening the FG?
If its not tightening your FG then you've done something wrong. Might be the rizutto, because that one does take abit of attention on this vid to get it right but once you get it its piss easy.
No the tensioning of the braid slide through the rizutto no problems.
what lighter is that?
👍
Why tie with hollow braid? Why not thread down the braid core?
Henlo sir, nice knowledge for FG knot with Rizutto finish.
May i know what type lighter do you use for that leader n PE?
Where can i buy it?
Regard
Thanks
Google search bouz lighter. Buy two as they can be hard to find and unreliable but great when working.
@@levihua1980 thanks for fast response...
Is Rizutto finish is enough or half hitch knot between FG n Rizutto?
For fresh watwr casting sebarau and toman, only medium around 14lb
Great vid, where do I get one of those lighter’s can you send a link or description
Google bouz lighter. They are great but tend to play up so buy two.
@@mbcustomlures7496 is there a gas refill you recommend?
@@CauseImFlawless it’s a bouz line cutter 2 google it. They are great but prone to failing so buy two if you can find them in stock.
@@levihua1980 no I know the lighter brand as he has named it but was wondering if there's a good gas refill that would be recommended
What kind of breaking strengths are you seeing w/ this style of FG knot? thanks
About 70-80% of the braid
I’m adopting your technique
Watched video many times
Tensioning the line s at the end is NOT real clear
Plz specify the sequence of
Lines to be tensioned by
TAG vs Main
I ll be watching for more
Tips. Thanks
Were you on ninja warrior?
Why tie any knot if using hollow?
Can you do this with the PR?
Yep.
I prefer finishing it with creamy lemon grass vinegrette more than risutto
Gimme dat Rizzuto finish daddy

I do the same for my FGs but after about 30-50 casts through the guides the risuto always seems to give way and starts coming undone, have lost some lures to this 🤦🏽♂️ any tips info on how to prevent this? Thanks
Try adding more turns the the rizutto and tying it with minimal slack line and tension 70% as tight as you tension the actual FG. Let me know how you go
Knot sense?
Just when I thought the FG was impossible for me to tie- this version is even more impossible smh
Just takes practice.
I like the way you show it, but my fingers...they'd go like a spagheti nightmare...before i managed to carry out the task.
I can be done tying my version of an Alberto knot before you're done wrapping that line around your fingers. I'll deal with a slightly weaker knot, if it actually is weaker.
Why dont you just try to learn the FG and do a break test yourself. Lol..
For braid connecting to mono, the FG is 40-50% stronger than most knots available that's why we are all trying to perfect the FG smart guy. This guy's FG is actually even better than the normal FG you see that's why we are trying to learn it.
It's actually really easy and takes under one minute if practice and get it right.
Good luck
@@davidyang577 I agree. What I have noticed though is that with thin braid and thin mono/fluoro it is not at all as easy to tie an FG. Also an Alberto is plenty strong when using light line for smaller fish. With heavier, thicker line/leader targeting larger fish and not focusing on reel drag so much an FG shines. I think it is important to use both knots as needed as well as incorporating drag and back reeling (when/if applicable).
The strength tests I have seen don't really account for these things. Everyone just wants the strongest knot even if it isn't the best knot for certain applications.
I really like the method shown in this video but it makes for a slight lump in the knot. This can create plenty of issues depending on how many guides a knot goes through in addition to the guide material. Also with improperly spaced guides on a spinning rod this small lump can cause an issue for the knot as well as the angler. The more standardized FG is pretty much a clean line so it can be better in some ways.
If OP doesn't want to take a few minutes and learn different knots that is his/her choice. But an Alberto is a great knot, like the FG, however there are many factors to consider aside from raw strength sometimes.
@@walkerrivers1549knots suit to the situation, and I didn't say other knots wasn't good, I just said there's a reason why this guy is promoting the FG knot.
But in regards to the finish on FG, there shouldnt be lump on the finish unless not done correctly. Whether it's Rizzuto or half hitches as you would understand base on the type of knots. Good luck
@@davidyang577 Why you reply to this comment.. Just dont be that guy.
I can't get my head around why the second set of wrappings on the rizzuto works. Surely it would just unravel when you pull it. The first set is basically a uni knot, but the second is just wraps.
I’ve watched most FG videos on UA-cam. Here’s my take, once the FG knot and 2 half hitches are done and you pull and tension the knot it’s basically done. All of the stuff tied after that like several more hitches or the rizzuto finish only help to keep the tag end from backing out.
@@ecksdog I get that. It's just to lock off the fg and tidy up the tag end. But I don't think the second set of wraps on the rizzuto do anything. All you're doing is wrapping the loop around the main line, so it would just unwrap as you pull it through. It's really only the first 5 wraps that work like a uni knot to tie off the tag end.
@@benprice3719 When you do the second set of wraps, you are transferring the loops to the other side which make the knot streamlined.
The rizzuto is actually a version of a nail knot

@@mbcustomlures7496 You missed a spell in every reply.
Looks simple but highly frustrating to do when trying to execute it.
Make more videos
If you could slow it right down... that would be awesome...
Take 20mins on slo mo to show me how to do it.
I just dont understand whats going where and why...
But... i can see its goodness.
cheers man
A butane lighter when the wind is blowing at 20 mph? Really?
Berkley TEC hot line cutter. Get one.
Why wouldn't you just splice?
Do you mean use a Chinese finger trap into the hollow core? If so in my experience JB hollow braid will splice up to its own breaking strain but anything thicker tends to be too big to thread.
I cant figure this shit out 🤣
You missed a spell in every reply. s
Looks bit messy prefer 2 half hitch cut leader burn it then uni knot or rizutto
You can't use that technique with light braid and leader. A Slim Beauty in this case us so much better.
Very risky knot. When doing the finishing knot… the ‘entanglement’ is not always consistent for a secure knot. U may pull how hard with your hands the knot remains intact. When fishing after repeated casting, the knot may unravel- your leader and lure will slip away… i rather stay with the conventional finishing for fg knot- more secure
This is true.
It would be much easier to replicate what you are doing if you recorded from your eyesight point of view. I get the basics but hard to translate into action viewing from opposite point of view.

I can tie the fg knot much easier than this in 2 min or less . In the dark, wind, on a boat or ice fishing!
Then go tie it and move on
@5spottedbass stop posting stupid much more difficult ways to tie a simple knot . This is a bozo the clown way of doing it. Anyone that followers your instructions will probably lose a good fish! After watching again, yup just as stupid!
