  • The FG Knot with a Rizzuto finish is my go-to leader knot. I'll use it for GT, Tuna, Bass and everything in-between! But this here shows you the exact knot I tie when Popping and Stickbaiting for GT with my heavy setups.

      @Joseph Richardson the IFISH one is a nightmare, tying this to your foot.. wrapping this around your hand etc etc. follow briggsy! Rissuto finish is stronger and more efficient than a few half hitch knots.

    Stoked for the awesome feedback fellas! I was trying to work out how to film this so that it was easy to follow and in the end found myself sitting on the floor hunched forward with my arms chicken winged out wrapping around the camera haha. Seemed unco at the time but when I watched the footage back it looked pretty great!

      Hey Briggsy, I am sure you probably already know this, but if you pin this comment it will be the first thing everyone sees. Great video and good to see some new content on your channel. Can't wait for part 4 of the new MT series it has been awesome.

    • @Briggsy
      @Briggsy  6 років тому +2

      Cheers mate, yeah I forgot to pin it! Part 4 of Stranded slows down a bit in fish action but is still a cool day. Then part 5 we go freshwater fishing up some stream/waterfall zone and that was really cool, I hope it comes out on camera as good as the day was!

    • @robertm4050
      @robertm4050 6 років тому

      I am super excited to see you guys in some freshwater. Wish we had fishing like that near me. I am going to cast net a bunch of bunker this week to make chum blocks out of and then to make fermented garden fertilizer too. May not get to fish for GT, so I need to make due with huge schools of bunker, large striped bass, and big bluefish runs.

    Thanks a ton Briggys for not only showing us how you tie your FG knot but doing it slow enough to follow along. I really wanted to learn how to tie it from you since I've seen the kind of wear and tear you're knots go through and hold up. For bass fishing here in Florida I've always used the blood knot. But now I will most definitely be using the FG knot for all my saltwater applications. Thanks bro.

Keep making instructional video's now and again as we like to see what the other side of the world is doing in the fishing world.

Ok 200 views were from me because I just couldn't get it right, but it's still monumental for a video about a knot. Actually, as good as your fishing action videos are, your (albeit, few and far between) tutorials are even better IMHO. Happy to say I can now tie nearly every fishing knot including the world's best FG knot aka Briggsy's FG knot. Thanks a ton Briggsy.

    Thanks mate, probably the best FG knot-demo I've seen so far. I'v watched a lot of your fishing videos, and I've seen the fish you've pulled out from the rocks, so I would feel very confident to try it your way. If it comes undone, it's probably because I didn't do it right. This knot takes time to master. Heading to Rangiroa soon, we'll see what happens. If you've been there...tips are welcome ")

    Thanks to you I stopped using half-hitches and finish FG and PR knots with Rizzuto mate. Much simpler, and much smoother, I don't know why I ever used those half-hitches before.

  • @thor_6886
    @thor_6886 6 років тому +3

    Very interesting, Briggsy. The Salt Strong guys (US blokes who've done a lot of knot contests etc) do two half hitches after the 20 turns before letting off the pressure. Then they pull hard on both mainline and leader to do the discoloured thng. They say not tightening at that point is the number one issue that causes failure with the FG. Then they cut the leader tag, then more half hitches and optional Rizzuto. I've never seen the order of the Rizzuto and the half hitches done your way, and I've never seen the tightening done hard on the Rizzuto. Very neat job, so i'll give it a go! Funny how you, Brooksy and John Cahill all have different methods.

  • @vinsentpeteh4886
    @vinsentpeteh4886 5 років тому +3

    Great video Briggsy, one of the best out there. Wanted to ad another small improvment at least it is to me. As I was tying the knot when got to the part where you need to burn the leader to create that cup which prevents the knot to slide off, couldn't get the cup to be smooth so it doesn't cut in the braid under tension. So I took a NAIL FILE and semoothend the leader into a nice round shape. Don't know if anyone else had the same problem but thought it might be useful. The ledaer is 0,52mm thick, maybe that happens only with smaller leaders. Cheers and tight lines :DDDDDDDD

    • @Briggsy
      @Briggsy  5 років тому

      Good idea mate, I think the brand of leader makes a fair bit of difference to that end shape after burning as well.

    Thank you for showing the importance of setting the knot! It’s the only way the FG works properly! Nice job!

      It's a more chilled day but still some good fish, part 5 we go freshwater fishing which was pretty rad!

      WTF... Gotta let people know there is a spoiler! Part 5 with freshwater would have been a huge surprise. It is all ruined for me now....
