These knots worked great Pete! Tied up the girlfriend with one to get out on the water, and tied one up when i started fishing! Two Big Girls In One Day!!
I use to stay at your Mom and Dads place on Spider Lake with my parents in the 60's Balsam Lodge. We stayed in one of the cabins as the lodge burned down before we stayed there.
Pete! Great video! I made a new drinkin game last time you were on the Musky 360 podcast! The game is: Take a drink every time Pete says "to a certain extent" Nobody wanted to do it with me, so i did it on my own. Never blacked out so fast in my life! Thanks to you i now have quit my drinking habit! Great info you give out always Pete! 😎👊🏻👍🏻
Hey Pete, what if Sasquatch, Meat, and I. We're going through the woods nibbling on mushrooms like Twizzlers with our tinfoil hats on ... and Came Upon a weird object... and we proceeded to open it up and find a little grayish blue man... so I ask you Pete maina will these knots hold up in securing this little grayish blue man down so we can proceed to probe him for ayahuasca..... you are a god amongst humans Pete maina... You are one of the six Kings of the padawans and we praise you Pete maina!!!
Hey Pete! Do you use this knot to get the man-kini extra tight around the jewels while Mr. Twister is performing "we're not gonna take winter no more" at the local nursing home?!?!
Hey Meat, I was wondering if you think this flouro knot setup would work for building the perfect musky stringer? Seems like it would hold pretty well to me.
Greeting from KY. I use Fluorocarbon on my sucker rigs. My main question is when using a sucker rig on a opossum where do you put cork to help with floatation? In its mouth or butt? I’m afraid if I put it in his mouth it won’t be able to breathe under water . Thanks in advance
Hey Pete. This will be my first year targeting Muskies, any tips you would give a beginner? What are some lures that seem to work just about everywhere? The rod I got is rated for 2-6 ounce lures. Any information will be greatly appreciated 😁
Biggest tip I would offer is build knowledge and enjoy. Technically nothing is the magic work everywhere bait. The absolute most versatile for all seasons are a cross between crank and jerk baits, that can troll or cast... Livingston Headhunter good example. But really need all food groups: spinners, topwater, soft plastics, cranks and jerks ... add as can to pattern what fish are in the mood for.
Hey Pete. Would these knots hold to catch old man winter and send him packing until next year. Also what size seaguar fluorocarbon would you recommend for this task.
Great video Pete! Say, if a person uses the Segar #130 with a Mustad clip using this knot creating a snare, and while placing a Titan with the EBS active, would it catch an extra terrestrial? Just asking for a friend.
Yes, they would, and certainly the uni; however, as you drop to lighter lb test you should add more wraps. If down around the 14 level would be doing 6 wraps instead of 3.
I wonder which knot not to use to not catch muskies which may or may not be located in deep or shallow water while not using knots that suck (like muskies).
I saw your yt vid.. and it keept me dreaming that someday i can hould that things too.. coz now i'm just a begginer.. i save my salary for 2 months just to buy a UL ROD at lazada.. coz here in philippines rod & reel is too much expensive.. i hope sometimes u can give me a tips for a begginer like.. by d way sorry 4 my english..
Thanks Frank; hopefully things become for affordable for you over there; there are a lot of videos here on the basics of using lures and most importantly fish handling
Is there any truth to the rumor from musky 360 the you are considering getting the guys back together for the Mister Twister get it in the clam reunion tour?
Nice video. The instructions weren’t clear, I tied this around the wrong part of myself and now my measurement in the length by girth calculator is half of what it was before this incident. Very snug knot that wasn’t going anywhere without a pair of scissors
I use that first knot almost exclusively but I just pinch the eye of the hook, wrap the tag end around my index finger while it is pinching the line and eye of the hook and then push the three wraps off my index finger nail and pass the tag end through the loop that I created with the three wraps. THEN lick the line so that the friction of pulling it tight doesn't burn the line. I fail to see the reasoning for licking the line AFTEr you pull it down?? At that point the damage (however minor) has already been done. You are shutting the barn door after the horse has run away.,
It's a good knot; do you know if official name. Yes, technically should moisten right away, but just helps slide; not at all concerned with weakening in reality in my experience
Good info but kind of bland Meat,.....kind of like dinner at the Smittys'. Spice it up next time. Get Gillespie on board, put on foil hats and pink bikinis and make some "Tex Mex chili". Next eat some wild fungi and show us how to tie schlubasaurus size fluorocarbon to your ben wa balls while puffing on a hot Italian Johnsonville like a Seaguar.
Firstly, use Izorline xxx copolymer… second, tie a simple advanced clinch knot! I throw 3-6+oz baits from time to time and have never broken off at the knot or had any issues landing huge fish from giant bass to surf fishing in Mexico!
Breathtaking knot acumen, this video reminded me of the lead singer of Mister Twister, restringing his guitar.

Great video Pete! SP told me he's been using this same technique on his balloon knot.
The big message really is just don't mess around with the crimps; they don't make sense when the stuff actually ties very well.
I use to stay at your Mom and Dads place on Spider Lake with my parents in the 60's Balsam Lodge. We stayed in one of the cabins as the lodge burned down before we stayed there.
That's really cool. The good old days there for sure!
@@petemaina7073 I remember your mom would put your life jacket on backwards so you couldn't take it off. LOL Your mother taught how to water ski.
Somehow I’ve never ran across your channel. Love the channel name. Nice quick knot vid
Thanks!

Glad I could help
I couldn’t see your knot at all. Could you tie it with the big rope too?
It is not real clear I can see here. Will try to get some pics in. Is 3 loops under main line ... after 3 big tag line up through all 3
Centauri Knot
Just subbed Pete! I believe these were the same knots that harry Houdini used. Lookin forward to learning how to tie my shoes as well👍
Good knots for shoes as well. Just don't take 'em off lol
Say Pete, would you recommend the double looper swooper magnum mono twister knot with a 80lb steel leader?
I’m dialed in on the tying, was wondering if you could help me with untying large flourocarbon
(K)not sure on that one - as I have never tried to untie big fluoro ;)
Super Video Pete🎣😉
Thx

Now that's funny right there - maybe need a little glue as well considering this winter

Muskie stringers don't need to be fluoro

No float necessary
Synopsis; this knot holds as secure as a crypto cold wallet. Crimps are as reliable as fiat
Yes! Great analogy
Would you recommend White Rain or Aqua net as a good knot sealer? Asking for a friend.......
Always hard to choose ;)
When is the new Mister Twister album dropping?
late May
My wife might have left me, but the muskies haven't left the lake, We Salute You, musky about to strike, We Salute You, musky about to strike!!
great video pete. is it true you spray aqua net on musky baits to get more strikes?

Proper release tools and handling techniques!!!!!!
Black and silver bucktail will catch fish anywhere
Per Jeremy's comment definitely check out the handling videos here on the page; make sure you know how to properly hold and handle the fish
Hey Pete. Would these knots hold to catch old man winter and send him packing until next year. Also what size seaguar fluorocarbon would you recommend for this task.
Is this knot strong enough to hold a bucket of skin lotion bottles?
Absolutely!

Pete...thanks ..will these knots work for lighter phlorocarbon as well...down to 14 lb.?
Yes, they would, and certainly the uni; however, as you drop to lighter lb test you should add more wraps. If down around the 14 level would be doing 6 wraps instead of 3.

@@petemaina7073 thank you sir.
Is there any truth to the rumor from musky 360 the you are considering getting the guys back together for the Mister Twister get it in the clam reunion tour?
of course it's true bro; we have the hair!
Ever consider using head cement or super glue on the knot?
Not at all necessary; never had an issue
Pete, if I can’t afford the large flouro, can I use extra strength dental floss?
Is this a knot that Twisted Sister or Mr Twister would tie 🤔 asking for a friend.
Absolutely bro!!
Love all the info you put out Pete thank you.
But what knot do you use to tie the mankini??
Nice video. The instructions weren’t clear, I tied this around the wrong part of myself and now my measurement in the length by girth calculator is half of what it was before this incident. Very snug knot that wasn’t going anywhere without a pair of scissors
Wow, amazing how girths can change
Does it look like a peanut now?
Pete how greasy are those hayward possoms?
Possums good; so are the porcupine
@@petemaina7073 Never tried them lol!
what size staylock snap and swivel do you use Pete?
5 and 6 in the snaps - same in swivels
@@petemaina7073 thank ya sir, i might try to make my own. still a little scared though! didnt think you could tie that stuff
I use that first knot almost exclusively but I just pinch the eye of the hook, wrap the tag end around my index finger while it is pinching the line and eye of the hook and then push the three wraps off my index finger nail and pass the tag end through the loop that I created with the three wraps.

Hey Pete great video I was wondering if I could re-purpose this knot for my sex swing or is that rope to big thanks for the help!
👍👍
:)
Pretty sure that's a centauri knot.
That sure could be. I was shown that one a long time ago - and preferred it as quick and easy
And has never failed on me
Looked it up and you are correct, though I suppose like some knots and fish may have multiple names. Thx
@@petemaina7073 I use it for my leaders too. Very strong and very easy to tie with heavy line.
@@timothythompson6549 Yes, it a simple one and very strong; the first time I saw it I switched to it

Big Flouro more like big Pharma...nice try Peter
Firstly, use Izorline xxx copolymer… second, tie a simple advanced clinch knot! I throw 3-6+oz baits from time to time and have never broken off at the knot or had any issues landing huge fish from giant bass to surf fishing in Mexico!
Disagree on using copolymer. For toothies, Seaguar AbrazX is best
Pete Maina for sure. For fishes with teeth 🦷
