This is a great knot with a knot strength of 91%. The main issue I have with this knot is that it takes me quite a bit of time to tie it and you do have to loop the lure back through the knot which can make it even more difficult. My preferred knot is the improved clinch knot. I learned it when I was quite young and it has only let me down when I didn't tie it properly. You need at least 7 twists to be effective and leave some tag to allow for a small amount of slippage. It has a breaking strength of 84-89% of the line strength, so it is very comparable to the Polamar. If you like to tie a quick and reliable knot, use the improved clinch. On the other hand, if you want maximum strength give the Palomar a try. Give this website a good look over on how to tie them at http://www.animatedknots.com/indexfishing.php then come back here so you can learn to do more catching with less fishing :) The Largemouth Herald	Florida's Friendliest Bass Tournament Trails Mr. B's @ FBF Fishing West Central Florida Lakes- Call Tom or Penny Crawford at 941-256-6793 or 941-256-6792 ABA National Couples Tournament Florida Division- Call Cary Wein 305-522-1919 or Mary at 305-522-1900 Florida Bass Fishing Promote Your Page Too Mr. B's Tournament Trail 2011-2012 Schedule and Results- Tournament Results from Lake Manatee January 15th, 2012 My Blog - ABA Couples Lake Okeechobee Jan. 7th 2012 and Mr. B's Lake Manatee Jan 15th 2012 Here's what some of our readers say about the information from our site: I tried some of the lilli pad techniques on your site and landed a 5lb 3oz bass on a craw lure in thick pads.- *LUIS TAMBUNGA* I want to thank you for the tips you gave me on catching more bass from the retention ponds, i've had very good results. first day , caught 4 bass largest was 3 LBS- *Joe* I have caught fish in several of the spots that you have highlighted on your site- *Double D* Had a good outing last weekend out on Lake Pierce, finishing 2nd with big bass honors, and edged out of 1st by 1/10th of an ounce!
