Post your pics/illustrations/links in this thread for knots suitable for game fishing and jigging.

Pretty much the universal answe will be the PR knot, can I tie one? No.

Thats a variation on an albright knot

Making a windon leader. This is a very simple way to save your money, you must have faith in the gear you make and use.......

Here is a knot I have been using for more years than I can remember, I showed it to a magazine writer and he loved it and published the knot, I use it to fish for everything from Jacks to marlin. you will need your 2 lines here I am using 80lb mono joining to 300lb mono. Scissors and a bit of patience to get it right then you can do it in a pitching boat. . . . .FOLD THE HEAVY MONO leave a decent tag end. .take the lighter line and pass it through the heavy eye you just made and again a decent tag end. .twist the line around the heavy stuf about 6 times heading towards the heavy tag end. ok so your turned it up now put the thin tag end through the heavy loop ok wet it out and slide it all up, dont yank or tear at it this will burn the line. . synch it up nice and tight trim up the tag ends .looks slim and tidy if you are using thin line like braid then double the braid or nylon, you dont have to do a normal double but what I call a false double, hope that helps mate as I say I use nothing else to join lines of all diameters.

I still dont understand why would you go for all the trouble to make the wind on and you can finish a PR in couple of minutes.

Does anyone use the FG knot rather than the PR knot for joining

with lil bit of practise pr knot is very easy , although does look complicated its pretty simple just keep ya half hitches tight especially last few up too burnt mono or fluro tag end and get tha finishing knot sussed . should have no probs with it coming loose if it does u not doing it right have seen some shockers even in a recent coast to coast mag guy had pics of a terrible method .

FG Knot is what Im be using for Braid to Mono. There seem to be plenty of ways to achieve the same result and this is how im doing it
