Fishing Knots

For years knot strength has been the reason that most fishermen lose fish. It's not the hook, not the line, not other terminal tackle, it's the knot. Trilene has spent considerable research money and time developing the Trilene knot. Under electron microscope this knot seems to deliver stress more evenly than any other fishing knot.

Trilene Knot The breaking strength is for the Trilene knot is close to 100% for most lines and diameters. It is always above 90% if tied correctly.
Improved Clinch Knot This is the most common knot used, but even though it seems much like the Trilene knot, it's weak in comparison. Down to 60% breaking strength in some cases.
Palomar Knot A knot that's easy to tie and has a good breaking strength of over 90%. Its only problem is that it tends to effect the action of some lures.
Orvis Knot Can form a loop that tightens when under strain. Its strength almost compares to the Trilene knot with a 95% average. It's a little harder to remember than the Trilene knot.
Surgeons Knot This knot is normally used to tie two monofilaments together, as with a tippet to leader. The knot is fast and easy to tie and has a high breaking strength. The number of turns can be varied, but 3-4 turns work well on most lines.
