FG Knot tool

Recommended Posts

Hello Raiders after researching FG knot tying methods and tools to assist I had a lightbulb moment. tied a simple loop in the end of the braid put arround a piece of my baitboard and used the rod to get the right tension. it was leaning against the board and I just wound  it a little. I must say since reading about the albright knot in this forum I have started to use it also.

 

This is the first attempt at my idea worked a treat in the garage hope it works on the bumpy sea

Great idea mate & well done for thinking outside the box. I find that the FG never fails & the leader just gets shorter over time. So what I do is cut the old knot just down on the leader & hold the old knot in my teeth to tie a new one. It's really helpful in light line.
