How To Tie The TR Knot for Braid to Fluorocarbon [VIDEO]

The TR knot is a hybrid knot that takes the best qualities of the FG/Sebile/Delph knot and combines them with the Uni Knot.  I came up with this knot because I really liked the FG/Sebile/Delph knot, but it would not work well with some brands of braid combined with some brands of fluorocarbon.  When the FG knot is able to grab, it is the strongest connection, in my opinion, but I experienced some frustration with a few brands and finishes.

The TR Knot uses the constriction qualities of the FG knot, a Bimini Twist and a stopper knot to form a very strong and compact knot.  I have liked this knot and have received good feedback on it thus far.  It is still in the testing phase, but I am excited about it and have continued to use it.

I have done over 40 knot videos but many people get confused with so many.  I often get the question, “Can you just tell me which are the ones I need to know?”
