Fishing Knot For Fishing Tackle - Tying Tutorial

If you are sick of losing terminal fishing tackle and big fish perhaps it is your fishing knots letting you down.

Each of the fishing knots in this tying tutorial have been tested by commercial fishermen and kite fishers over the years.

The first four are suitable for joining and maintaining kite and longline fishing tackle and are also ideal for light tackle fishing.

Remember, your expensive terminal fishing tackle - and that big fish - is only as safe as your weakest knot.

Snelling fish hooks give improved catch rates and only takes seconds per hook. It is much stronger than tying fishing hooks.

The first five saltwater fishing knots are the same as those used by PFK to tie all of their kite and longline fishing tackle.

Not only are they very strong, they are also very durable so don't need to be re-tied as often as most conventional joins.

The nylon coils on the first five knots illustrated above actually lock in such a way that the nylon line does not cut into itself or continue tightening up and weakening itself after they have been set.

Our tying instructions are easy to follow, simply click the link to find out how to tie a fishing knot.

The saltwater fishing knots have been extensively tested over many years and most are employed by commercial fishermen in New Zealand.
