Uni knot
Tying line to a hook, swivel or lure, or onto an empty reel spool. If you only learn one knot, learn this one.
Step by step
- Pass the line through the eye and lay about 15 cm of the end back alongside the main line.
- Bend the end back towards the eye to make a loop lying over both lines.
- Wrap the end around both lines and through the loop 5–6 times, working away from the eye.
- Wet the knot and pull the end to pull the wraps tight together.
- Pull the main line so the knot slides down onto the eye, then trim the end to 2–3 mm.
Tip: On an empty spool, tie it around the spool itself and pull it tight. It grips as you wind on line.
