Easy as to tie and casts well. Caught alot of kings off the rocks using it without ever having any issues.


AKA the Roddy Hays knotWink all i use for lighter braid/mono connections but also can be used for heavy braid etc
 
Ahh yeah thats it and also known as the Bob Sands (I think). I use for for PE5 braid joining to 100lb mono and dont use any doubles or anything. Found it really good and so easy to tie.

The join will pass through the guides perfectly fine.
 One thing to consider is if ya going to use a double make it as short as possible as in really short, then cats paw it to the wind on leader. The rationale for a really short double is that as it leaves ya spool  it is easy for the loop to throw over the striper guide as opposed to through it, resulting in tears, snaped line lost lures or worst case scenario a  guide ripped off. 
A short double is less inclined to billow out unevenly and wrap around the stripper guide

I use a twisted leader connected by a catspaw to a short bimini for heavy popper fishing & am still trying to master the FG knot for stickbaiting.]]> Thu, 23 Jun 2011 10:51:44 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=67292&PID=960710&title=leader-knot-for-poppers-and-stickbaitss#960710 <![CDATA[Leader Knot for poppers and stickbaitss : Sebeil knot but finish like an...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=67292&PID=960709&title=leader-knot-for-poppers-and-stickbaitss#960709 Author: Nirai

Loop to loop for windons cast great, if you to use a knot the best for casting seems to be the FG knot or a small (as in short)PR knot]]> Thu, 23 Jun 2011 10:47:16 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=67292&PID=960705&title=leader-knot-for-poppers-and-stickbaitss#960705
