The Palomar fishing knot is one of the most reliable and easy-to-tie knots used by anglers worldwide. Known for its strength and simplicity, this knot is particularly effective with braided lines and is commonly used for attaching hooks, swivels, and lures to the fishing line.
To tie a Palomar knot, start by doubling about 6 inches of line to form a loop. Pass the loop through the eye of the hook or lure. Then, tie an overhand knot with the loop, but do not tighten it completely. Next, pass the hook or lure through the loop. Finally, moisten the knot and pull both the standing line and the tag end to tighten it securely. Trim any excess line.
The Palomar knot retains nearly 100% of the line\“s strength, making it ideal for heavy-duty fishing. Its double-line design distributes stress evenly, reducing the risk of breakage. Whether you\“re a beginner or an experienced angler, mastering the Palomar knot will significantly improve your fishing success. |
