It’s a great knot, but If you are starting out and learn the Grinner you don’t really need the palomar as they do the same job. Equally once you know the grinner there are extensions of that knot that you will need at some stage in your fishing👍
It’s also one of the very easiest to tie if you aren’t used to holding fiddly loops of line, and the knot itself doesn’t contain lots of loops. It’s hard to see and very light in weight.
Much easier to do a figure of eight loop knot with a baiting needle pass the needle though the second loop twist then pull though the fist loop buy putting it in the latch of the needle. Easy stuff (and you can make them nice and small)
Many different ways to do it all work. This knot can also be used to loop to loop leaders on to your mainline in which case you need it to be much bigger 👍 on hooklinks Harry prefers a bigger loop that extends from the anti tangle sleeve, this gives that section of the rig more stiffness and reduces tangles. Just his preference like having a small loop is yours
@@fox_international yes I agree with larger loops for leaders and for PVA bag work I was referring to the hook link when using quick links and sleeves Try it with a baiting needle it works really well and you can control the size of the loop better
Absolutely, this video has been made as a reference point to anyone who is starting out and/or confused with what they should use or how exactly to tie them
🤦♂️ It’s all good showing people knots but not when you’ve done them thousands of times, this video just looks really hard to do trying to keep up with all your finger movements for beginners . Pointless video. I only use polamar knot unless unable
My favourite knot was Alan Knot. nobody could catch like him.
Palamor knot should also be in there!
Totally agree because tests prove it is very strong!
Only knit I use for bass fishing. I've also caught a 33 lbs grass carp on 15 floro. So I for one trust it completely. It's never failed me

Very helpful, and uncomplicated. Well done, thank you Harry
Glad it helped
Good instructional vid for beginners - thanks Harry - no need to over complicate things when starting out. 👍
Quality Harry 👌 I always love your presentations, you come over so well and are very easy to understand. Thank you 👍
great video, thank you
Does the back to back grinner knot work for joining mono to fluorocarbon?
Tnx 😁
Clear as mud
Nice vid! But my favourite is the albright knot ✌️
Good knot for sure but not as easy and universal as the back to back grinner 👍
Thought the grinner knot went twice through the eye or does it not matter?

And which button do you use with
Fluorocarbon
Line ?
Which button? Knots for fluorocarbon all the knots mentioned work. Just ensure you are using strong fluorocarbon 0.35mm and above
My awnsaw is whatever works best for you fishing especially carp fishing getting to complicated

Don't even need a figure of 8,overhand knot is perfectly good with coated braid. Never had it slip or break in even the snaggiest conditions.
Yep,fair enough.
Can the over hand knot weaken some materials ?
Don't forget FG knot, crazy Alberto and Carrot knot
Should be called Harry Frontier Charrington 🤔🤣
You use saliva, I prefer dog slobber. it has a more interesting smell and texture.....?

No carrot knot then.
It’s a good knot but no significant advantage over the back to back grinner and harder to learn for beginners
