When I watch your videos I feel like I'm watching jeopardy...rarely do I have any knowledge of what you're showing/teaching us but I always walk away learning something new. Keep up the awesome videos.
You bet Ime! My pleasure! I absolutely the uni knot to finish off wraps like in three pr knot and fg knot. Creates a ramp so it's so smooth going through the guides! Thanks so much for watching and the comment! Really appreciate it.
Hey Robert.... to be honest.... yeah, yeah that would definitely work!!! The bobbin makes it pretty easy with the tensioner... butttttt YEAH great shout. Thanks for watching and the great comment!!
An excellent tutorial on using the bobbin to tie a very difficutl knot! That said, I hope I never have to tie this knot--way too difficult and time-consuming for me!
hahaha HI JOE!!! Always a pleasure to hear from you... I mean you tie some of those carp rigs, I think they are pretty tough too... the good ol stiff hinge multi rig, the hair rigs, etc... To be honest, I use this not more for offshore fishing, though I may give it a try for carp fishing to connect braid main line to a fluoro or mono leader... I'll have to give that some thought... I haven't seen a notification pop up for a while on one of your videos?? You been winter carp fishing? I'll have to check your channel and see if I just missed a few episodes. Thanks again Joe... Hope all is well.
@@Johnnyfishalot To be honest, about a month ago I realized I had become obsessed with carp fishing and my UA-cam channel to an unhealthy degree--those had become my entire identity and reason for living. It's a shame, but I have this very obsessive vein to my personality whose object varies with time. All that to say that, for the time being. I have let go of my video channel entirely. Not going to do any more shooting, editing, or posting for the foreseeable future while I figure out a better balance to my life. I haven't given up on carping and/or kayaking--just, I hope, not to an unhealthy degree! I went out to carp fish twice in January, but couldn't find any concentrations of fish to fish to either time. I could only fan cast about 50 yards max, but within that radius, I could only find the occasional one or two fish--not worth setting the kit up for. I did probe with my Deeper castable Sonar two entire sides of the lake! I guess the carp had moved farther out beyond where my casts could reach or were in another part of the lake I hadn't explored. In my mind, no point in fishing where there are no fish! I'm thinking about fishing this Sunday after early service--if I can locate a grouping of fish worth fishing to. If not, I may resort to a little apartment lake that has lots of carp in it and ser if I can get my first carp of 2023 on the bank! I bought a GX2 Ugly Stik and two of those Sharkey 3000 reels for kayak carping. I'll probably load 'em with 12 lb. mono, since they're a lighter reel than I'm used to (all my carp reels are ABF-50s). I continue to enjoy your new content, and I even go back and review the older ones. Your knowledge of all things fishing is truly amazing, and your willingness to help the rest of us is so appreciated, and not just by me! Keep on fishing, shooting, and sharing, all your subs are the better for your entertaining and always informative videos. Thank you and keep it going!!!
@Joe's Carp Adventures thanks so much Joe... always appreciate your awesome and nice comments... sorry to hear about your troubles with youtube, but glad to hear you course corrected and are finding better balance!!! So important.... yeahhhh winter carping can be tough, I've actually been meaning to get out myself, but work has been crazy, so I've just got in some short trips... thats awesome news you got that ugly stick and those sharkey reels!!! Gongrats on the purchase! When you do start using them, I'd love to hear how you like them... for what it's worth I really did enjoy your videos 😉 but happy if your happy just fishing and not worried about filming haha. Thanks so much Joe! Always love hearing from you and the comments!! All the best!! Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks
Thanks for watching @sneekapaloopa... Thanks for the comment. I have tied it that way as well, in the past, but honestly it makes the knot connection double the size because you are overlapping two very tightly wrapped areas of the line (over each other). The way that I have tied gives you the incredible strength of the PR knot, and limits the diameter of the knot which is ideal for reeling the knot in and out of your reel and through the rods guides. The wraps I've done in the video (the first wrap) is more like a run way so the PR bobbin wraps catch on the runway and add strength without adding size to the diameter of the pr knot... hope that makes sense... have a great day and thanks again for the comment!!
Yeah I like about that in my pr knot... just remember the pr knot is basically and extension of your main line.... vitually unbreakable... hope that helps
@fishingwithjohnnyfishalot well I am completely confused..at 3.55 you said wont be that long and what you wrapped is about 2 inches... where is this 6 to 8 inches you are talking of. Or do you mean 6 to 8 centimetres. I have never seen a PR knot 8 inches long (that is almost a foot) old days people wrapped about 3 inches now most do about 2 inches max....
as long as u like ,just makesure start knot is cinched down braid changes colour ,and that wraps visibly smaller . when cinched down properly the braid adopts an oily greasy appearance
Thanks for watching @oneloveyessah we usually tie this knot to our leaders and our top shots before we go fishing... We don't normally tie this while out on the water... this is perfect for tuna fishing topshots, blackfishing, deep drop fishing, ect.

Haha thanks Eric! Always appreciate the support!! The good ol bobbin is a brilliant knot tying tool!
Beautiful truck!
hahaha was there a truck in the video???
Thanks for sharing. I like the integration of the Uni Knot at the end.

wow , just use a 30g sinker tied to braid
works for me

Its really a fast knot to tie. Must have knot for slowpitch jigging with high end rods.
If you have a bobbin why didn’t you use it for the initial wraps. I think you should have used the bobbin both ways for a nicer knot.

@@Johnnyfishalot Understandable and thank you for the explanation
6 to 8 inches knot ?

@@ShorrockPaul A inch to a inch and a 1/2 is fine. 2 inches would be my max if I hit that. Anything after that is just a waste, IMO.
as long as u like ,just makesure start knot is cinched down braid changes colour ,and that wraps visibly smaller . when cinched down properly the braid adopts an oily greasy appearance
Over kill. The fish will be gone by the time you finish tying it
