The Palomar Knot is a popular and widely used fishing knot known for its simplicity, strength, and reliability. It gets its strength from forming a double line through the eye of the hook, which distributes the load and minimizes stress on the knot. It is a versatile knot that works well with various types of fishing lines, including monofilament, fluorocarbon, and braided lines. How do you think the Palomar Knot performs in the test?

Remember to practice tying the knot a few times before heading out on your fishing trip to ensure you can tie it confidently and securely. Let us know what knot you would like to see tested next!

Do you remember when your dad, mom, grandfather or grandmother first took you fishing as a little kid? When you first learned how to tie a hook onto your fishing line?
