Good to know another strong knot, I basically use 2 knots, the Palomar and the Uni-knot, neither have failed me, and now I'm going to try the knot you demonstrated. Since I don't yet know the knot's name, I'll just refer to it as "That Alex Rudd Knot Thing" for now.
Never seen this knot before but will definitely give it a try. I've always just used a Uni knot since I'm always using a double uni for my leader to braid. Never had any issues yet, knock on wood. Awesome video, thanks man I'll give it a try. Hey Alex, what leader knot do you use, if you don't mind me asking? Thanks!
Great stuff bro?? it’s basically a double San Diego jam without going through the bottom before going through the top. I highly recommend giving the Simon clinch knot a try for braid. I actually invented it and it’s becoming very popular around the world. I have been contacted by two different international magazines that want to publish it if you can believe that. It’s actually my highest viewed video. 45,000 views in over a month and a half. Before that six months of only 9000 views ???. Crazy how things take off. Good luck on the water bro.
I use the Palomar or the double improved cinch knot depending on what I am throwing, I like that knot because it doubles around the eye of the bait . If nobody knows the name of it maybe we should call it the double Rudd knot!
Im a palomar knot guy myself. Ive been looking for a solid knot for flouro, and i think i jist found it. Im definitely gonna give this a try. Thanks man
I use the same knot, it’s the absolute best, especially for floro, never had it fail at the not. I’ve never heard a name for it before. I use the FG knot for my braid to leader connections.
I used that knot I call it the back woods double Shindo but I usually don’t use my Porter finger for the loop but looks much easier that way thanks dude
Double pitzen, 16/20, Shaw grigsby knot, swindle double shindo-over the hill beside the barn foot hole knot. lots of different names for it. Very similar to a double San Diego jam but the double san diego you go through the bottom loop then the top loop.
First time I've seen this knot. It looks good, and I will definitely give it a try. I typically use either palomar or improved clinch knots, as well as uni-uni for my leader to mainline connections. By the way, great demonstration!
Yeah, I'll give that knot a try. I've been using the clinch knot for most applications. I tend to vary it up and use the palomar when I'm throwing straight braid and the palomar again for light line. It's crazy but practicing different knots is a fun pass time for me. Thanks for this video, it gives me some new ideas.
Alex, I see a lot of your subscribers recognize and name the knot correctly. It goes by many names but the most common name used for it today is a San Diego Jam knot. Your version is a Double San Diego Jam knot. Pitzen is another common name for it along with about a half dozen others. Jimmy Houston uses a version of it, too. The knot does test really well in strength tests. If you have a large crankbait or some lure with treble hooks hanging all over it, this is a great knot to learn to tie (single) where you actually swing the lure around to form the loops. Brad
I like the wrap it around your middle finger 147 times, quadruple nut sack knot
I have a question for you, however w did you grow such a sexy beard?
The best knot ive tried especially for braided line
braid to leader FG Knot

That is a double San Diego jam knot
GRETA VIDEO BUDDY. PALOMAR FOR ME ON EVERYTHING

I use palomar for almost everything except frog fishing (trilene) and punching (snell knot)
Sanfrecsco jam

I tie the same knot!

I normally use the palomar or the snell, but definitely have to give this one a try
I use Palomar but I'm going to try your way
I'll give your knot a try. I usually use a uni knot for most things but sometimes a palomar knot , just depends on the type of line I'm using
Improved clinch on Mono, Palomar on braid, and whatever this one is called on Flouro haha
I always use the Palomar knot but I think I'm going to try the knot u try
I can tie it perfectly but what I like to use is basically a uni knot but it's looped through the splitring/hook eye twice
I used that knot I call it the back woods double Shindo but I usually don’t use my Porter finger for the loop but looks much easier that way thanks dude
This seems pretty close to the knot the G man talks about leaving you with three tag ends. Have you tried the Tactical Angler clips at all?

It's like a double uni knot, I use the same knot, it retains almost 100% of the knot strength.
What kind of clear frog is that if ya don’t mind? I’ve looked everywhere but in your tackle box.
Good idea dude! Love the series this will turn into. Also, I’ll be trying to tie this knot this weekend ????
I use this knot for all my fluorocarbon. Never failed me either
Double San Diego Jam just saw this for the first time yesterday and I will be copycatting the hell out of it!
