Note: This contest is by no means finalized. If you are not yet using either of these knots, then I highly recommend giving them both a try and choose the one that fits your needs best. However, the Salt Strong Knot is a bit slimmer, about the same strength, and it’s much more versatile since it can be used for leaders of all lengths and it can be tied to a leader that already has a lure/hook attached to it. When in a rush, the Surgeon’s knot is the winner since it’s extremely fast to tie and very strong. Given how close the Surgeon’s and the Salt Strong knot ended up being in the final face-off, they both can certainly be great options to use. The results of this contest were surprising… I certainly didn’t expect the two least popular knots (Surgeon’s and the no-namer) to be in the finals.Īs shown in the contest bracket below, the Albright knot turned out to have the worst breaking strength (6 to 8 lbs) with the Double Uni knot placing in 3rd with a breaking range of 7 to 12 lbs… which was the most inconsistent of them all.Īnd the two lesser used knots had significantly better results… both had the exact same range of 13 to 15 lbs with the slight edge going to the 3 turn Surgeon’s knot since it won 2 out of 3 in the final round. Note: See breaking strength test result below Mono to Mono Knot Contest Results How to Tie Surgeon’s Knot (3-turn method) It’s bulky with tag ends pointing out (not weedless).Tough for long leaders because leader must be passed through a loop 3 times. ![]()
