GT Knot – Viral Version

How many variants are out there of the GT Knot?! if there ever was a competition for the amount of knots with the same name, well today we have the winner…..The GT Knot. There I thought it would be easy just to show you how to tie the GT Knot but in fact all I ended up doing was opening up a can of worms.

Overall Rating: ?/10

  • Easy to Tie
  • Can be used on all 3 main line types.
  • Very neat linear knot and on small line types the knot glides thru the rod eyes with ease.
  • Prone to slippage on braid if incorrect wrap count is used.
  • Confusion on the Leader knot, this knot is critical make sure a Figure of Eight knot is used and not a Double Overhand knot.
  • Single Line variant may be weak so be mindful of that.
