This video teaches how to tie the ultimate Alberto knot. The Alberto knot may be the most popular braid to mono/floro knot of all time , unfortunately many anglers have problems tying the knot. If you are one of those anglers, this is your video. Its the last Alberto knot tying video you will ever need. Easy to follow, precise instruction from start to finish with special attention paid to problem areas that often result in knot failures. PS, I will also introduce you to using Loon UV Knot Sense, this will be a game changer. Enjoy the video and remember, If you have questions, hit me up in the comments, I try to read and answer all questions. Thanks for watching - กีฬา

I especially like the tip to use handles to pull the knot tight. I had a piece of 1/2 PVC in the garage that works great when taped up. My left little finger really appreciates the idea since it no longer gets "bit" by the mono/fluro.
The absolutely best Alberto knot on TH-cam. Ya’ll, IMHO, don’t have look any further. The only thing I’d change, since I have arthritis, is I use a large finger trimmer instead of a razor blade. Thank You Thank You Thank You.
Thanks for watchg Larry, I got a few suggestions to drop the razor, May have to rethink that.
Thought that after over 20 years of bass fishing, I would be exposed to almost all tips on tying knots. But using that Loon UV is great info that can be very useful. Thx Steve.
Thanks for watching Dave. There is so much knot tying info on the tube we all should be better knot tyers. practice is most important.
Funny I used to use it a long time ago when I fly fished. I had forgotten all about it.
@@michaelfaez9473 I draw from my flyfishing past for a lot of my Bass fishing.
Thanks for the detailed tutorial!
Thanks for watching Wayne-good luck.
Love that knot.
It's my go to. Thanks for the comment.
I keep two pieces of delron rods, 1/2in dia by 3in long, wrapped in electrical tape, in my boat just for snugging down knots. They fit will in the hands but don't take up room. The use of UV glue is brilliant! I've used super glue from time to time, but typically just trust my knots without. I bet this leader knot will last much longer with the glue.
Thanks for making this!
Good idea with the pieces of rod.
Great tip on the UV knot sense!
Thanks Coop, tight lines!
Thank you for watching Toro.
This is my favorite connection knot. This just makes it better and still easier to tie than the FG knot.
Thank you for this knot video. I have been using the Albert knot for years but never as you have just shown us. But I am going to use this method going forward. I love learning new tips that make fishing more fun and interesting. Thanks again.
Thank you for watching pm. Tight lines in 2024.
Now that was great video. Great knot. I learned something. That is good.
Excellent video. The Alberto is favorite of mine. I learned something new today!
Thanks for watching Patrick, The Alberto is the one I always come back to.
Awesome knot!!! Excellent tutorial!!
Thank you very much. 👍🏾
Thanks for watching D - good luck.
Thats an excellent tutorial. The Alberto Knot has been my favorite braid to Fluorocarbon knot for years. I like the Loon UV cement. I am going to try it. Also the two 3/4 “ PVC pipes with Electric tape is an excellent idea. My wife is mad because i stole her cutting board in the kitchen.
Join the mad wife club, comes with fishing. Thanks for watching and commenting.
This is an example of an excellent knot, with excellent instruction, resulting in a beautiful and strong knot (I use this knot all the time)... but I will not put that kinda of time on a boat making it that nice... One helluva video though....
Thanks for the comment softball, go out and hook the big one-and don't wory about your knot.
Freakin AWESOME!!! Thank you sir!
Very good video! I tie my Alberto the same way but had not heard of the Loon UV but you can clearly see this helps the knot especially through the guides. I use this know for slow pitch jigging splicing the braid to the flouro leader. Typically 30 lb braid to a 40 lb flouro leader. Thanks for the education!
I follow the same recipe for Bass 40 bl braid to 12 to 18 lb mono. Thanks for watching.
It a good knot the ALBERTO knot you did a very good job showing this knot thank you
Thanks so much for watching and commenting tony. Good luck in 2024.
Thanks, Steve. Great video and thanks for the idea about the Loon product. It was nice talking with you at the Basshole swap meet last weekend.
Thanks for stopping by to say hello-goood luck in 2024.
Clear, detailed, and still interesting. Best instructional video I’ve seen. Growing up fly fishing I’ve applied Loon Knot Sense in the same way ever since I started bass fishing. Works great on the FG (thinner diameter knot) I tie at home and on your Crazy Alberto which is easier for me to tie in the field. Two things I hope might be helpful to some: If you have sticker shock on the Loon products , fear not. It’ll easily last you over a year. You don’t use much and it doesn’t dry out. Two, if you leave the hi viz braid tag 3/4” long it fuzzes up nicely when fishing That makes it a great indicator for your line watching, weightless techniques. It still flies right through the guides and works well with your white knot indicator trick. Great video!
I like the indicator idea for bass fishing applications. PS I have a leaky tube of the knot sense. The goop is pooled in a cup. Have used it for over a year. Just keep it from uv and it never hardens. Thanks for watching Ken.
Wow nice tutorial.
Whats up G, been out. Was thinking I might see you at the Bass Hole tourney.
Great tutorial 🤙
Thanks Todd. I appreciate your comment.
Two Cats one bass today.
I have trouble trusting that knot.
I will get the U.V. stuff and use it.
I tried like heck to do the F.G. knot.
Once I think I have it I test it….and it’s a free lure for a big fish.
F.G. stands For F… it’s Gone !
I also tested the Alberto it breaks easy at the knot.
I will try it the same way you did Coop.
I like to have the clear line by my lure with a touch of stretch.
Thank for the help Coop!
The only time I have fished with that knot was the time you tied it on my rod.
I felt like a little kid in Thea back of your boat
Solid knot I caught fish on it Uncle Steve.
Thanks for the report MJ. Just got your latest PIc, nice.
Hey Steve, nice helpful vid. I use the Alberto knot exclusively and more so than the FG...easier to tie and just as slim through the line guides. Have never had an Alberto knot fail, but I recall doing a check on an FG knot and it slipped. Yeah, many will say it's user error and maybe so, but I've NEVER had a user error issue with Alberto knot. I've heard Al Fong mention use of the Alberto in many of his vids. Alberto and Albright....great knots!!
Thanks for watching Nate, I have problems with the FG when it comes to light leaders. Check out Salt Strong, they explain why the FG may not be the best way to go for litr line applications.
For a more compact knot, the tag end is used to lock in and keep the loops inline. After the loops are seated the leader and braid are tightened.
excellent video and explanation
Thanks Srep, good luck.
I appreciate the information on tying this knot. I am very interested in the LOON UV knot sealer. While I try to tie my knots at home when I starting out, invariably I am out on the lake with 15-25 mile and hour winds in my kayak. Not a lot of room for other gear and my line is blowing all over the place. LOL. ;-)
Thanks for watching and I am with you 100%. I try and tie all my line to leader knots at home. I am fishing out of a boat so when I need to change rods due to knot or line problems, I just change rods. Hard to do in a kayak. If I am in a pinch and have to retie, I will retie a Alberto, with no Loon, It's a good knot, better with the Loon but still a good knot. If you have trouble tying the Alberto on the boat, tie a double uni knot no loon. When you get home reset everything in the comfort of your own living room. Were all fishing for fun, every now and then we have a knot break, won't really mater in 5 years. Have fun.
10 out of 10 on the instructional video! Avast, I'm an FG guy.
Thanks Mark, I have never got a 10. I've always been a C student.
Been doing this for 3 years. Finally upped my game by buying a UV flashlight.
Thanks for watching lastrod, keep that rod bent and don't wory about the knot.
Jeesh, Steve, I thought I made a pretty good alberto knot! I guess knot. I'll be getting that knot sense and giving this a try. I've used superglue for encasing, but it doesn't work well.
Put the UV on top of your super glue .. I use the glue on last cinch, then UV drop on top for smoothness.. works like a charm and never a failure.. jerkbaits or big swimbaits.. no stretch for hooksets and some cushion from leader
Hi Bill. One advantade with the loon stuff is that it is softer than glue so if you have a long leader and it's on your reel, the knot does not tear up your thumb.
pent hours learning and practicing the FG knot. Good instruction, guess I'll have to learn the Alberto Knot too, just because it is there.
Great video. What UV light are you using?
Just a standerd uv light from lowes.
Thanks so much for the answer. I watch your reports every week. Keep doing your videos
Is this Michael Graham the crappie man?
No sorry. I am Michael Graham the old bass fisherman. Haha@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997
When he said “magnifying glass ” I was out. Sadly I don’t catch monsters but luckily my double uni has never failed me on my dinks.
The double uni is a great knot, I also use my readers tying it, may have more to do with my eye sight .
Cool! Have you tested the knot strength on a scale?
I have not, I wish I could just to check it. I will say that before I started using the loon UV knot I would have problems,from time to time with the knot. No longer have any problems, could be that I am better at tying the knot. Thanks for watching.
I think the crazy alberto knot is more forgiving with the thicker mono topshots (150-200) and braid (150-300)we use here. Uni knot is strong too. These have held up to 13+ hammers at 60lbs of drag. One line of my buddy had multiple unis. That's strong enough proof to me and use them all of the time.
@@iamatt You are right. The heaver the mono the better. The alberto knot is what is known as a fine grip knot. The braid must grip into the mono, so light leader to braid will loose some straight.
Have you tied a red Philip knot
I have not. Can I find this one on the net?
Where do you get that product from?
Loon products are all over amazon or in any fly shop. TW also caries it. I will load a video on drop shot and share my knot sense hak, this stuff has many uses. Thanks for watching.
I use a spring clothes pin or rubber coated binder clip to hold the loop and braid...my hands are so big just makes it easier....almost like 3rd hand.....theres a joke in there somewhere...??
First off, I get the joke. Thanks for the good tip, although I have small hands.
Please dont use a double sided razor, keep your fingers in tact for fishing. Use good sharp scissors
No one ever called me smart-thanks for the tip and thanks for watching.
@@indeeponthedeltawithstevec5997 Actually, a single edged razor blade is what you want. You're trying to get very close to the knot. Scissors will never do that quite as cleanly. Great tutorial!
Thanks Peter. I do like the single blade razor, a lot safer.
Should've titled the video "how to over complicate the Alberto Knot". There's nothing in this video that makes the knot any better than a thousand other videos showing the knot.
Don't use the knot. Thanks for watching.
Guess YOU haven't watched too many videos and you obviously don't know how to tie an Alberto knot. What a clown.
Bloody HELL Man what are you fishing for? Too much trouble.
I guess everyone has there own threshold for detail, I guess this video found yours. Thanks for watching, thanks for the comment and you may like my next couple of videos. Quick and easy.
What a pain in the butt!
Still beats loosing fish. I usually do all my knot tying at home.Not so popular with my wife. On the water evrything is ready and all I do is a rod change. Thanks for watching.
Wait, I dropped my UV light off of the kayak! Just joking. Actually I learned a couple things watching this. Thanks for the video
Not at all....Im 68 and and kinda struggled at first but use a clothes pin with spring as extra fingers and never has alberto failed me.
I’ll stick to using florcarbon
Huh? Why don't you show and tell how to do a better knot. We'll all wait....
I personally use FG knot.. finish it with a tiny bit of super glue on last cinch then a touch of the loon uv on top… Never, never had a failure… Alberto has failed on me, feels weaker compared to FG, and FG is thinner.. goes through smaller worm guides easier.. jmo after yrs and yrs of using this leader method for pretty much everything.. especially for jerkbait and swimbaits…great vid man… Loon UV is great stuff , tie up in the shade , use light or stick out in sun for a few seconds,also Daichi makes a fantastic tool for the FG knot.. makes it simple and quick.. actually tied up 4 rods today with new leaders, ready for springtime baby!!
Thanks for the imput car. Give the knot sense a try on the FG, you may like it. I also use the FG, but only on heavey mono leaders.
