    Default fishing line knots

    been struggling with this one question for a couple of years now and have not done anything about it so now here i am open to all of you here.

    while chasing them marble eyes, how are you all tieing on the line, say the worm harness and all is it ok to hook up to a swivel or not, same question for hooking up to trolling set ups

    thanks for all the help in advance

    half Pole thanks for your answer !

    So then im assuming then that it will have no effect then on the movement or actionn on the blades of the gear id be using right, thats was my concern and few of my friends had wondered the same. common sense says that the line twist will effect things if i did not use a swivel

    Use a quality swivel. You are exactly right your harness would look like a birds nest without a swivel. Use a palomar knot on braid and your preferable knot on mono or flouo carbon.

    use a coastlock or duolock swivel. common snap swivels tend to pull apart with bigger fish.
