- In this video I show the steps to tying the Fish N Fool knot, a knot I have been using for over 10 years now. This know offers breaking strengths into the 90% range and works equally well with light and heavy lines, mono, fluoro and braid like Power Pro!

Hey JP, Fish-N-Fool here. Good job showing how to tie my knot. I created this knot about 40 years ago. The one thing you missed is not saying anything about not letting the lines cross on the hook eye. This is not super important when tying braided line, but it is critical when tying mono or fluoro that the lines say parallel on the hook eye. By the way this knot tested at above 100% in all line types. I have some info from the original knot wars on knot strength I can share, if you are interested.
Always used the Palomar before. An old man showed me the Palomar 30+ years ago on the Commercial Blvd. Pier in Ft. Lauerdale about 3am one morning after i had an arguement with my wife, and the old guy couldn't sleep, and we both found ourselves at the pier to toss a line in instead. He was about 85 and I was 20, and I soaked up a ton of info as he was obviously happy to share. Learned a lot about fishing and marriage from that old guy that night.
That said, I find the Fish N Fool to be an excellent knot, and use it exclusively, except for when its dark out and I can't see. Then, I do the Palomar because I don't need to see to do it.
I have been using it for two years now and love it... great video as always, JP!!!
Thank you for sharing this knot. This is the only knot I have ever used and haven’t broke off yet.
Awesome to hear!
So you’re trying to say u have never broken off? I call bs hotshot. Everyone who fishes breaks off at some point in their fishing career. No need to lie about it
Been fishing for years, and never knew this knot. I use the trilene knot for a long time. I'll try this out. Thanks.
I'm changing all my palomar knots to start using that one thanks JP
Hey JP I have been tieing that knot for yrs and I've never ever had a problem with it. Great knot thanks for the video and God bless you and your family
It all varies from string to string. Stretchy, waxy, stiff, smooth all can change the knot required.
Fish n fool works because the hang knot into a double twist so the line distribution of force is not as focused into one section of the line as a palomar.
Thanks for taking my son shark fishing in Layton Key!
Have a merry Christmas and a happy new year Great information. Bassmd
Thanks, you too! Enjoy the holidays!
I’ve never even heard of that knot before
Have you tried the Berkly Braid knot? It beat the fish n fool knot in knot wars years ago and that is a knot I've used a lot since watching that knot wars episode many years ago.
The Berkley Braid knots is a better fluoro knot but the Fish N Fool is the king of Braid and Mono. As a whole package I chose this one.
@@JPDeRoseOutdoors Plus those test were skewed so the Berkley Braid knot would win. If you remember the show was sponsored by Berkley and used their machines to do the testing. They put up a 10 wrap Berkley braid knot against a 5 wrap Fish-N-Fool Knot, If both have the same number of wraps the Fish-N-Fool knot is still stronger.
Yo bro, you got the COVID? Sound kind of stuffy. Cool vid, I will try your "Hey You Knot". LOL
LOL... have a sinus infection... gets me every fall... all good other than being stuffed up. LOL RE: Hey You! Hope all is well bud
What is the strongest loop knot?
I’ve never tested loop knots, I have used the Rapala Loop Knot and the perfection loop for years but deep down inside, I feel like they aren’t as strong. Maybe I’m just crazy! 😜
No loop knot is as strong at a good knot like the Fish-N-Fool, but the perfection loop is the strongest of them all. It's very hard to tie a larger lure on with it though.
What knot is recommended for spinner baits
Fish N Fool would be my go to
"I hope everybody's staying safe. But more importantly, I hope everybody's catching some fish". My man has his priorities straight. 🤣
😂 gotta be on them bud!
This is a great simple knot. I've found if you keep that first loop after you went through the hook twice, now keep that long and wrap the whole thing with the tagline 5-7 times then finish by puting the tag through the loop and pull. You get the double connection to the hook, but you don't strangle the top by closing the loop. It's a reverse snell which only tightens as it's pulled, instead of pulling on the tag like that one.
