- The goal of this FG Knot Tutorial is to show how to tie, in detail the FG knot (aka sebile knot). It's so easy you can do it without using your teeth and without anchoring any of the lines.
In part one I go into detail how to lay down the wraps using this method.

Great video for a beginner like me. Very slow made and the two color line was a good idea. This video really worked for me. Pura vida!
Hi
Guess what? He’s actually teaching, not showing off. I may be a pretty dim bulb, but I appreciate how he slowed it down. This method is different than some that have you holding the line in your teeth while hanging upside down and using your feet. He takes the time to clearly explain what to do, and just as importantly what not to do when tying it with this method, and why.
This is where I learned to tie the FG, and while it’s slow and methodical, I’m tying it at a 100% success rate. I’ve never had one tied like this fail.
You want quick, there’s lots of guys out there who want to show you how good they are at it instead of breaking it down like this.
Seems to me a lot of you are more interested in wasting your time typing negative comments than learning to tie the knot.
Omg. Is he actually going to tie this knot, like ever
Now i can finally tie an FG. Watching your video was a light bulb moment where it just clicked. Gonna teach this to my newphew. I already told him to check out your Daiwa Laguna 5000 reel review, because that's why i bought him that for xmas. Cheers mate.
I didn't comment when I watched two years ago. This video started me on a journey to tie this knot. I watched more videos and now use this knot with total confidence. Also subscrided and wait for new reviews. Thank you Nick. Please continue the great content.
This method of tying the FG knot has really been a game changer for me. I have been using this method of tying the FG knot for the past year and it has excelled, thanks again for this video Nick.I was able to take my FG knot tying time from about 5min to 2min and less.
I tie the FG with this method exclusively. My regular set up is 20 lb. Sufix 832 braid to 12 lb. fluoro or mono, and once I figured it out, I have never had one fail. I even use it for 10 lb braid to 8 lb fluoro on drop shot rigs, and haven’t had any issues.
I think the key to tying it with light lines is to slow down, and after each wrap give a couple gentle tugs at 90 degrees to insure the wraps are snugged.
I religiously inspect my line, leader, and knot, and if I even suspect there’s an issue, I retie, especially after a long day fishing. But overall, this knot and method of tying it have been terrific.
video starts at 5:00
Thanks man, I wasn't able to tie this knot well until I tried your method. Maybe not the fastest method but this is the method that works best for me.
My go to knot when setting things up. If I'm out on the water and have to make another connection for what ever reason I just tie a Double Uni as I find it a lot easier when dealing with wind, bouncing boat and everything else going on at the moment while out on the water. This is a Fantastic knot and I have gotten very good use out of it
4 min in and waiting for knot !
Way to go..... much easier and simple.. more important, it really works.
Thanks for the video, very informative.
I would suggest taking a look at the Salt Strong video for this knot also. Easily tied in under 60 seconds.
I've seen it. Excellent video. I just don't like using teeth to hold my line. If i'm chunking flats of butterfish or sardines, bunker....my hands are nasty...last thing I want to do is put anything in my mouth that I don't have to. Part of why this method is so great. No need to put a rod in the holder or anchor any line.
I find myself turning to the PR knot though over the FG. Bobbins are no longer 100$. ANd it's a better connection and easier to get max strength consistently. The FG is a 70% to 80% abs knot...the PR can get almost close to 90-100%
SO your 50lb braid that breaks in the 80lb rang on the PR can be fished as if it's 80lb.
Or for FW...you can tie a trilene or polomar or pretty much any knot...and not break off your leader when hung up. Always pops at the terminal knot with the pr.....not always the case with a FG when using stronger terminal knots like a double uni/ polomar/ miller
Very good video, thanks!
Just found your channel and this is the best instructions I watched so far on how to tie the FG. Well done 👍
Cheers Mate !
Hello TA .. just waiting to see Part 2.... more or less I follow the same steps you showed until locked the tag end. Now, what I do next is wet the wraps and push the wraps I did next to the lock (as possible) and then I tight the main line.... I want to see Part 2 soon...thanks for sharing your tips...
I have part 3 done...part 2 had a corrupted video file....I leave at 3am for a 120 mile run for two days chasing bluefin and bigeye tuna. SO Wednesday I"ll have the other two videos up. Sorry for the wait.
Thanks, man.
Love to see you tie 30lb braid onto 14lb mono like this on a boat
Very Nice mantap 👍🏻
At 5:04 should the black end of the tag go under and around since the other side of the braid went over and around?
im just saying thankz for the awesome video!!! im going 14lb fireline crystal with 12lb vanish leader.
You're welcome. I've been using the new fireline ultra 8 for a while now...14lb is some tough stuff!
So the first wrap of the braid goes over the top and the rest go under and up?
Every time I've seen the fg tied this way it's done in stages,they will do 6 rap's form the knot another 6 raps form the knot and the last 6 that way the whole knot knot tightens down properly and not just the last raps, there's a couple of kiwis that do a show called big angry fish and they have a how to tie the fg knot on utube, its worth checking out in
The first time you wrap the black part of the braid you go over the leader line instead of under like the rest of the wraps. Is this necessary ?
YOu are right....and It was a mistake. I've been meaning to reshoot this vid. But between other projects and my camera pooping out. I haven't done it yet. I think i filmed this like 30 friggin times to get it all in frame...I blame editing fatigue for missing it :) lol.
I experimented with your method of tying does not. I use a lot of braids 10lb and fluorocarbon 10lb. I tried to tie these two together using your method. it was very difficult because the L line was so limp and had trouble keeping them together. what am I doing wrong?
what if your main line is a fly line not the braid
Can’t seem to figure it out. I get like 7 wraps in and start to slice my fingers open
fg is cool if you're at home tying knots but , i don't have time for it on the water when the fish are biting.. i've never had a properly tied uni or alberto fail while fishing , so that's what i use with braid..albright or uni when using mono.
I just got back from a tuna run. 190 gallons burned to give ya an idea of the water covered. Had a spliced end loop get damaged by another hook. Cut it off and tied an FG knot.....took about 3 minutes to tie on 12 hours into the second day of an overnighter with 35 minutes of sleep in the wind on a rocking boat....lolol...But yeah. I generally tie the fg at home when i can. And Alberto knot when in most fishing situations.
saw your post on surftalk , congrats !!
+Flatzout hey thanks alot man. I've leadered and gaffed some bigger fish. But this was my biggest with my role being on the rod! I'm glad that even after a little end game mishap my 100% hook to landed streak remains intact! I even broke my pb mako earlier that night with a 7 to 8 footer! I have most of it on video. But while it's crystal clear the angle wasn't great. as I set up the camera while I was casting to tuna breaking on the surface. Slow trip to start. But awesome finish
Where did it get the name FG ?
Why haven't you put any videos out lately?
+Jake orr Hey Jake... camera crapped out. Had to get the sumbitch repaired. I'm not a fan of the gopro 4 or 5's vid quality for bench work. I've essentially been filming 4 nonstop for a week since getting it back.
how do you do it with lighter lines?
Easy... I pr knot with a fly tying bobbin or use an Alberto... I have the Daiichi knot assist 2.0 but if I'm using a tool I'd rather spin a bobbin
Knot tying starts at 4:09
It strokes the line or else it gets the hose again!!!!!!
Hold on I fell asleep and just fell off my chair. Okay I'm back up watching this long video. Come on bro there's only so much hours in a day. Cut to the chase… Hmmm… there's a part two?
#MeToo FG Knot Tutorial
I'm sorry but in the real world I'm not going to have time to be stripping the braid line as long as you did it.
Only a couple times is fine. Once the line is worn in the fished end tends to lose the coating anyway. Basically enough to get the twist out. I think in the video I just kept doing it as I was talking
Take it easy, it’s a damn tutorial. He never said he was in a boat in three foot swells.
What’s he doing again.
Come on get on with it… That's probably why it needed a part 2
Just my experience: this doesn’t work with light leaders. Can’t cinch it down. My typical saltwater bass setup is 20lb braid to 12lb fluoro leader, you absolutely need tension on the braid to successfully tie in that case, the fluoro just slips out otherwise. The Alberto also works flawlessly on the same setup, with an extremely low profile. I tie a tensioned FG at home, or an Alberto on the kayak. I am not suggesting this method doesn’t work, but with lighter gear, it has not worked for me. I use 20lb power pro and yo-zuri 12lb leader, would be happy to see if and how it can be done reliably this way.
I agree 100% With light leaders under 20lbs I have trouble stacking the wraps. I find the PR knot to be easier than the FG with the lighter stuff. I'll even use the daichii fg knotter for light braid and leaders.
Tackle Advisors interesting, never heard of the PR knot. Thanks
You know this video is good as far as showing how to tie the knot. But id like to see you do it with line that's more realistic for everyday anglers. Using your method with 15 pound mono instead of the super stiff 60 pound is a LOT harder than these videos make it out to be. The mono just folds every time you attempt to loop a wrap over it.
I see what you're saying. And this method while some have no issues using it with lighter lines....I punt and use other methods or knots. I like this method for surf casting situations and anything using 20lb leader and up. For lighter lines from 4lb to 15lb used to use the Daichii knot assist. But have scrapped the FG knot altogether for light line. Figured if i need a tool for ease of tying..i might as well go with a stronger knot and tie a pr. There really isn't an easy FG knot for light line. Easy being a sub 2 minute tie
Is an Alberto a good knot to tie for quick leader attachment on the lake or do you think I should tie a different knot. I have 10 pound yellow braid (power pro) to a 10 pound floro leader (sunline) for stained to muddy water on my spinning reel love the vids and excited to see the channel start to grow keep up the good work
+Martin Reid Livingston it's a great knot 8 wraps down 8 up...only modification I do is pass the tag through twice before cinching.
Thanks for the feedback and love the vids. Do you think you will start to film more fishing vids on the lake or more aid down vids like now. (Love the vids now tho)
Thanks, WHile I like filming while fishing. I often fish at night, and if im out during the day. The last thing I want to do is expose where I'm at. Whethere it's here or on the forums I post on. I never post a pic that can give up my spot. And since I'm a global mod on a forum with strict anti spot burn rules...I edit many posts that blow up spots.
And maybe since i'm in my mid 30's. And i didn't grow up filming and posting everything I do on social media. Filming everything kinda takes the fun out of it. My goal really isn't to be a live vicariously through me fishing channel. but I'll post a few. I just got back from a tuna run. And broke my personal best Tuna. Took me 200 tuna to do it!!!! I'll post up the vid once i get it edited.
I plan on doing quite a few aid videos. I didn't originally but I see so many bad ones with misinformation on youtube. I think it would be a good idea
Skip halfway through if you want actual information.
There is no better knot for braid to FC
PR knot? I've been tying that more than the fg as of late..
Nice method but it gets way more complicated when you use thinner mono!
100% correct
Seriously cut to the chase
So you took what could've been a 5 minute video and made it into a 3 video series?
Says the person looking to lean how to tie a knot... In a way shown for the first time on the internet...
It was that...why over complicate it. Its a super simple knot that can be taught in under 2 minutes...no need for a 3 part mini series.
I like your videos but you background color blends in with the color of the braid and the lighting is bad. just fyi. Otherwise really appreciate the content.
+simedogz thanks simedogz... This was actually the last video I filmed before I had to send out my camera for service. The image sensor was going bad and I made tons of image corrections just to make it look this bad lol
Been learning a lot from your videos. But will have to say, I just don't understand why anyone wastes their time on this knot. The Alberto knot tests on average 95+%, and takes a quarter of the time. On top of that, I have read so many complaints of this knot slipping. I figure this knot is extremely easy to mess up, or cause of the slickness of the newer braids, is not reliable.
Good I'm glad!
I use the Alberto for much of the fishing I do. But it's not close to a 95% knot from what I've seen. Especially when considering ABS (actual break strength of lines)
I guarantee most who have problems slipping. Hand tighten the knot without gloves, dowel or cinching tools.
I've had issues with j braid slipping on fluoro. But that is because it was not cinched tight.
I wouldn't use an alberto when tuna fishing. FG and PR are the closest you can get to a spliced connection.
If i'm using 40 or 50lb braid to a 40 or 80lb leader chasing bass and bluefish. I have no need for an fg, Alberto all the way. But if i'm using 20lb braid for more distance. I"ll FG
If I'm using 5lb or 10lb braid for fw fishing. And 8lb fluoro or mono. I"ll tien an FG so that The uni knot(terminal end knot) breaks and I don't have to retie a leader.
"Most who have problems slipping hand tighten". Probably, however, I lost what might've been a tournament winning kingfish on a "properly" tightened knot that slipped. One loss of a fish like that is one too many.
too much talking and explaining. just show us how to tie the knot I really do like this video and the method you are using. but after watching and listening 20 or 25 times I just want to watch the technique and movement
I can’t even finish the video. It’s driving me nuts.
Just tie the damn knot!!!!
Not sure if anyone else experienced a scammer seller on Amazon. I ordered the penn slammer III and the tracking said it was delivered in California, problem is I live in Texas. The seller won't respond. The too good to be true apparently was. Amazon is checking into it. Anyone else experience this scammer offer.
Hey AL. Not sure why you posted this here. But I heard of one other individual who had a similar issue with the slammer earlier this year if my memory serves me correctly. Was yours recent
@@TackleAdvisors yes, it was on Nov 20th. Lot of scammers come out of the woodwork when holidays are near. Be careful.
way too much talking.
wholy sheit 5 minutes before you even start tying!
10 minutes for first of three videos seems a little too long!
stop ruin z braided --.
I lost the will to live 4 minutes in
test
Test.. Test.. Test.. Test
2 minutes of stroking line and I couldn't watch anymore .
Tomás O Shea yeah I think it’s going to give me nightmares
i enjoy your page . you have a lot of good ideas . but ! it took 4:52 minutes to begin tieing the damn knot jesus christ on a crutch man ....
Really don’t understand the fascination with this knot. There are much faster easier knots to use that have plenty of knot strength
JLC JLC it’s all about the smoothness as it goes into the guides also definitely the strongest line to line connection knot, if you are fishing in that salt for fish like tarpon and snook you want a knot you can but a ton of pressure on and and goes through the guides smooth, uni to uni doesn’t cut it for the heavy and long leaders you need for tarpon, snook and offshore fishing too.
You talk too much
Easiest way to tie a fg not is not to tie it
Get on already
If this guy strokes his dog or cat as long as he does this braid, he has to have the happiest pet in the world. I like this guy, but watching him stoke the braid for 4 1/2 minutes is mind numbing.
lmao
Over 4min of talking, Why?? Just show the knot!!
About 4 1/2 before you start tying the freakin knot. Geez
seriously dude... do you need to pet it that much...
Jesus Christ would get annoyed at the lead in.
you talk tooo much, we get it!
Seriously 5 min before you even start!? Smdh
those poor fingernails ...
Cut the first three or four minutes of your babble out and then you might have something...my goodness, you talk a lot, sir.
Dam you talk toooooooooooooooooooooo MUCH! all I could take was 3:30
Seriously almost 5 minutes before any useful info. Watch other video
Why ...why why ..nothing new just bla bla bla !!!!!
