    There are a lot of different types of fishing knots out there on the market, but with that being said, when it comes to fishing fluorocarbon fishing line, the best knot is the double pitzen.
    I have fished a lot of different knots over the years and many of them I would break off from time to time...that is not the case with this knot. I have literally never broke it. It is truly stronger than any other knot I have found!
    BassFishingHQ is dedicated to teaching people how to catch more and bigger bass. I will go over different bass fishing tips & techniques that will put more fish in the boat or on the shore. Whether you are just starting out or a seasoned tournament angler, my goal is to help you catch more bass.

    I wanted to thank you profusely for introducing me to this knot. Since I have been using it, I have never went back to using anything else. This knot is so good that when I hooked a rock a few hours ago fishing on the Snake River from the shore, that when I pulled really hard to dislodge my bait, the jig ended up breaking from the hook instead of the line tie because it was so strong. Keep up all your great fishing tips. I really think between you, Matt Stefan and Matt and Tim from TacticalBassin you guys are simply the best out there giving their subscribers true value from the content you guys supply. Keep up the great work!!👍🏻🙂

    Before watching this video, I tied on a spinnerbait with the trilene knot. Immediately after watching, I went back out and retied with this knot. I love that it is easy to learn. When I tried the FG knot, I had to keep watching the videos over and over and trying again and again. I was happy with the first try with this one.

Glad I know the name of it now, I hung up a brand new Megabass crank bait yesterday, and yanked on it for 15 minutes, and got it back without snapping off! Really wish I knew about this knot sooner!

I've seen other videos on this knot but when I saw your video recommending it, I was sold. I'm going to start using it this year and hope to have as much success with it as you do. I use P-line 8Lb fluoro so I don't think it's the line and the biggest fish I'll probably catch here in Colorado is 5 to 6 lbs. I may jump to a 10 or 12 lb fluoro just to be safe though.

    Knot knowledge is great, but knowing what they're actually for and how they work is more important. No knot is all around "superior" to all other knots, but several of them are superior for their correct application than many others.
    Also, fun fact, most people tying a Palomar do it incorrectly because they don't have their line laid out correctly when they pull it. The failed tie will get you by just fine for the majority of fishing applications, but when tied correctly is way stronger than the failed version most people are doing.
    Glad to see some coverage of knot anatomy going on in your videos.

    This knot is the shiz. Been using it a few years. Always thought it was called the Shaw Grizby knot. An added benefit is that the direction of the tag end acts as a hook keeper if you slide your plastic over the knot. Sometimes I use glue to make the tag ends a little stiffer for this purpose. On the downside, this knot catches a lot of weeds if not covered with plastic. If I’m fishing around cheese I’ll switch to a Trilene since the tag on the knot points toward the lure.

    99% of my experiences with line breaking has been with straight Flourocarbon line. Anywhere from 10 to 16 lb test. A few years back I started using a Copolymer, Flouro coated line and have not had even one break off at hook set. I tie almost exclusively the improved clinch knot, but I will definitely give this double pitzen a shot.

Setting a hook will be a relative snooze. I was using the palomar previously. This is a useful change. Thanks for putting it out there.

    I've been using this knot as soon as I started fishing with fluorocarbon and for the exact same reason.

I've researched and tried multiple knots, and the double pitzen was the winner in my tests also with fluorocarbon.

    @robertgallacher7214 Рік тому

    Something most people don't understand about high end flourocarbons,some mono's and co polymers is the extreme low friction surface finish on them. When you wet lines like these when tightening knots and hitches it creates a huge amount of friction that can cause a lot of line damage as the surfaces moving over each other effectively stick/weld together. Best example would be trying to move two sheets of glass with water between them vs two dry pieces. It's worth trying out tying your knots/hitches without wetting them, high gloss finish on the line is a possible indicator they will tighten up better dry.

    Lol, i did not know what this was called. ive been tying this for about 5 years (after breaking off a King Salmon at the knot way back when, ouch!) No break offs at this knot!!! Love your vids & tips, keep em coming!! Thank you!!!

    Even when trimming those 3 tag ends as close as possible, they seem to snag more algae, weeds etc than the palomar or improved clinch. Dabbing on a little krazee glue over the tag ends seems to help.

    Might have to try this knot! I had, what I assume, was a world class northern pike break my polyer knot. I had a 12" steel leader with 20lb braid. I was trolling crankbaits for walleye or bass and the monster hit, i slammed the moter in nutral and i could not turn the thing. I tightened the drag and we had a 20 second stalemate with him taking line inch by inch. I losened drag a tad and he just took off again, i was running out of line so i tightened a little more snd after three drag takes, the line just snspped. Left me with a curled piece of line at the end. I have a 45.5" pike to my PB but this was a new type of beast. Lol

  • @Cornelius798

    It's definitely a strong, reliable knot but it's a weed collector fishing from the bank more so than other knots due to 3 tag ends facing forward using fluorocarbon or copolymer line. Fishing in open water it's a great knot. I should try the knot on straight braid the tags ends will fold back. Nice video, thanks!

    @brianmccormack84 17 днів тому

    Jimmy Houston gets credited for many knots also the triley knot. All these nuts are good just use whatever works for you if you lay down the Palomar knot correctly it is the strongest but you can easily mess it up. Keep fishing

      @tagg946 Рік тому +1

      ​@@Riddlemethisgaming same here, i think alot of knot break offs come down to tying a proven knot and making sure its properly tied with the correct type of line... the only knot i never use with fluoro or mono is the palomar, it cuts into itself and only works with braid.

    I’ve sit for hours testing knots like a true fishing nerd. The Palomar, Double Clinch, Double Pitzen, Doubled Uni and many others along with leader knots.. I have came to trust the double line SDJ over everything. I also do 3 wraps like the Pitzen no matter the line size. In the case of braided line I will do 4 to 5 wraps depending on the diameter.. The Double Pitzen is great though, I would feel pretty confident in it as well.

    • @butterytoast4836
      @butterytoast4836 Рік тому

      I’ve been testing knots myself as well. I’ve found that the Trilene knot beats the double pitzen, double SDJ, doubled palomar and Uni and improved clinch. Tested with 15 pound fluro and 10 pound mono.

    • @TheRaven243
      @TheRaven243 Рік тому

      @@butterytoast4836 only thing I don’t like about the Trilene Knot is when you cinch, especially with fluorocarbon, the loop through the eye has a lot of friction. Fluorocarbon doesn’t like friction and heat.. If I do tie it, I like to tie it in reverse like a reverse clinch, which is a little harder to keep the loop placed right with the Trilene knot. They just cinch up better in the reverse, and tests have show the reverse clinch method is stronger than the standard.. Whatever works best for you is what you should use, it’s double SDJ for me.

    probably the most simple knot other than a square knot. I will try this for strength. the only issue I can see right now is 3 tags are 3 times the weed catching area.

    @hardrockminer-50 Рік тому

    There's a lot of line stubs pointing back at the rod when you're done. Those stubs will collect grass and weeds on the retrieve. I add one step and run all those ends back throgh the loop just above the hook's eye. Makes the size of the knot a bit larger but, less to catch weeds on the retrieve.

    Man I had an absolute heartbreak this past weekend at lake lbj in Texas. Flipping a jig underneath an concrete dock had an absolute giant hit my jig. Set the hook, got her to the boat and at the last second she took off hard and just snapped my line. Had to be at least a 7-8 lber. Went from the Palomar to the double pitzen right then and there and got a 5.2 the next morning on the water. Not the giant i lost but still an awesome bass to land.

  • @robertstange-nu4nw

    I switched to some slick braided line and no matter how many wraps i did on the clinch know it would slip out with almost no pressure. Doesnt happen to me with the palomar know but i have had lures go flying on cast so i will give the double pitzen a shot.
