Movable stop knot to replace crimps and bait stops

A short video showing how to tie an easy and strong stop knot used instead of crimps or bait stops.
In this knot tutorial, I show how to tie a moveable stop knot on monofilament or fluorocarbon line to act like a crimp or bait stop. The knot is easy to tie and is reliable particularly when saltwater fishing from piers, rocks and the beach. The advantage of using this type of knot, typically tied using power gum, is that it can be moved to tune clip down rigs and be tied on to a rig at any time (unlike crimps)
Hope you find this how to useful. If you do please like, subscribe etc.

credit where its due that's one seriously strong stop knot 😳👍

[@trampster7306]

Good video. Never tied a stop knot in my life but I know how now! Just need some Powergum. Thanks.

I tried similar on friday night, used to small pieces of neoprene tubing looped on twice same effect worked a treat. Also use as float stop.

[@TrustedTackleTips]

Can also use elastic bands or just some old mono if desperate. I do find that neoprene tubing and elastic bands are harder to adjust though.

Thanks ! I appreciate it !!

I just tie 5 overhand knots (10 lb. test) right on top of each other, and clip both ends kind of close to the knot.

awesome video. i threw it a like. and a sub.

[@TrustedTackleTips]

Thanks for the sub Michael.

Didn’t understand this one it’s a uni knot with 5 turns that get pulled out as you tighten

[@TrustedTackleTips]

They do however have always found it ties easier with the first wraps, not sure why? Maybe something to do with the rubbery stretchiness of the power gum. Perhaps I’ll produce a video with and without the first wraps - what do you think ?

Pretty "Uniknot", nothing new and exciting, but well-presented.

[@davidharvey8064]

Will this work on braid mainline

[@TrustedTackleTips]

Sorry David, that’s not something I’ve tried. The only thing I tie to my mainline is either a clip or swivel to attach the rig to. I only ever use mono or flouro for my rigs.

[@TrustedTackleTips]

There is a discussion here that may help though: www.worldseafishing.com/threads/stop-knot-for-braid-mainline.26790809/

[@anuragjagdhari6036]

Where this knot is used?

[@user-sk4rl2sw9k]

at the very top of your floater rig

[@peterchessell28]

Far to fiddly theres a much simpler version

[@TrustedTackleTips]

Please share Peter. Anything that makes tying knots simpler without impacting their reliability or benefits will help all of us.

[@iave3151]

Yep, come on Peter, talk is cheap pal.

[@TrustedTackleTips]

I’ll see what I can do to fix it.

@@TrustedTackleTips get yourself a new 20 dollar cam

[@TrustedTackleTips]

@@ARCSTREAMS that’s not going to sort the background noise in the room it was recorded in ;)

[@ARCSTREAMS]

@@TrustedTackleTips i did not hear any background noises, i was barely able to hear your voice because its rec very low by whatever you are using or maybe you need to adjust your settings ?thats what im saying when i say horrible audio
