It might be the smallest going through rod guides but try tying that in the boat when it is windy out. The Alberto has never failed me. I will stick with it.

Netknots.com is a good place to learn how to tie many different knots.


I use and tie the FC knot in any conditions. I use that knot for my rods with micro guides. I use the uni-uni with other rods.

I like Alberto, but use yucatan. Easier to tie and smaller knot

Alberto without a doubt. I primarily crappie fish and had issues with the double uni breaking before my lure knot. After 3 years using the Alberto I can only remember breaking it 3 or 4 times. FWIW I fish 20# braid with 8-10# fluoro in brush.
