Braid lasts 20 times longer than mono. I run mono or braid to mono. I can take me faded braid off one reel while winding it onto another reel. New fresh line again. Takes nowhere the uv damage that mono and flouro does. But he's right when taken down to bare bones facts. He's the GOAT. Brought so much needed happiness into my child hood. Thanks man. You'll never know how much you helped me through my youth.
i picked up a rod 3 years ago couldnt even tie a knot to save my life. im 27 and im out here slaying toads one after another because people like u take there time and give to others we appreciate even the simple videos! thank u mr.martin for your time!
I just went through a whole lot of knot videos and I found yours to be the most helpful. Your comparison of not strengths was helpful and the addition of super glue makes sense. I sometimes use the uv knot sense as an alternative to super glue.Thank you
Roland, when I got the notification that you had a new video, I went right to it. I already knew how to tie all four knots, but I enjoy watching your videos so I had to watch, and I really enjoy watching them, even learned just how inexpensive mono was when compared to braid. Keep em coming please!
Roland, I started using your knots about a year ago and I can't tell you how happy you have made me teaching knot tying. I haven't had any failures since taking your advice. Thank you!!!
Another great video. It is nice to see experienced Pros pass on information. You, Jimmy, Bill and Orlando have taught me everything I know and use in fishing. Thank you.
My name is logan stark im originally from sarasota fl but now live in nc and fish rivers alot you've been a direct guide for everything from knots to lures and tactics I've caught some great fish on the whopper plopper and the senko and ned rigs i have family in arcadia fl and would love to fish with you someday thank you for the all knowledge
Roland, I like your double uni knot. When I try to tie the fg knot it takes me a long time and is hard to get it right. I started using superglue on my knots also. Thanks Roland. 🐟🎣
Great tutorial to have on mono knots. Having done most of my bass fishing in stained water I've been lucky to get away with using mono. Going to clear water which I've started doing some lately , I go to fluorocarbon. Thanks Roland!
Well done! You make it easy. How often do we change lines? Do plastic worms and Senkos expire? I have plastic worms that are 8 years old. are they good?
Great video Roland you always do such a great job of explaining and teaching thank you so much. Don’t all of those knots you showed also work well for braid and fluorocarbon carbon?
Hey Roland how are you doing I’ve been watching your TH-cam videos for about two weeks now I am a subscriber and I was wondering being that I am new to bait casting reel’s I was told monofilament will be easier for me to cast. So having said that I noticed on this video that you had a 14 pound bass pro Exceel Mono fishing line and was wondering if it would be a good Wait for me to use to start off let me know I would appreciate it
Sorry Roland... that's a Uni to Uni knot. A "Double Uni" is using a doubled over line (like starting a palomar) then using the doubled end to tie a regular Uni knot. You will end up with 3 tag ends to trim. Uni to Uni is still a great knot for braid to mono connection.

You're a living legend. I'm trying to learn everything I can from you.
Man I love to watch this man. talk about down to earth keep the videos coming Roland
Nice video. Not many legends in their field choose to share their knowledge, thanks for doing so.
Palomar is my favorite knot because I can actually remember how to tie it! The only downside is the amount of wasted line.
Thank you brother! Solid, relative, advice! 🇺🇸🌴🐟

You’re the best ever. Been watching you all my life. You as vibrant as ever, a true blessing. We love you!
Thanks Roland! From your fellow Marylander who move to Vero Beach.
Thanks Roland. I prefer mono and still use it w/good results. And I’m still throwing a Devil’s Horse & a Jitterbug! Plastic worms 🪱 too!
Appreciate you taking the time to share ! Enjoy all your videos too!
Can't thank you enough for passing along so much great knowledge.
Thank you for your knowledge and fishing entertainment for so many years.
Always the best . Learned all my knots 🪢 from you . Thanks
You make it look easy, when I do them they’re not so easy. Palomar knot is the easiest for me. Blessings from 🇨🇦
You are a great teacher. I've learned a lot from you. Thanks so much

Thank you Mr. Martin!

Excellent info Roland.
Thank you sir. I appreciate your lesson.
Thanks Roland
Thanks for the video brother
Thanks for the help
This was another great learning video knot what I expected 😂
Ditto a true legend, what kin of pocketknife🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I have had great success with the double improved clinch knot this year.Lost zero tackle with braid this year!
Thanks Great job
Great tutorial to have on mono knots. Having done most of my bass fishing in stained water I've been lucky to get away with using mono. Going to clear water which I've started doing some lately , I go to fluorocarbon. Thanks Roland!
Very good
Well done! You make it easy. How often do we change lines? Do plastic worms and Senkos expire? I have plastic worms that are 8 years old. are they good?
Sure
My favorite knot is the fisherman's knot works perfectly for what my kids and I do and it's a easy one to learn
Which line last longest, on the shelf?
Can you use a lood knot on say 20lb braid?
Great video and info , What is the best knot for braid? I use the Palomar and wanted to know if that is the best ! Also I use it for flurocarbon.
Great video Roland you always do such a great job of explaining and teaching thank you so much. Don’t all of those knots you showed also work well for braid and fluorocarbon carbon?

Great video. I use more mono than any other line. I’m not sure when I should use fluorocarbon and mono. I use braid for heavy cover here in PA.
How good is that BPS Excell mono? Never used it before.
It's what I use and good as any on the market!
Sorry Roland... that's a Uni to Uni knot. A "Double Uni" is using a doubled over line (like starting a palomar) then using the doubled end to tie a regular Uni knot. You will end up with 3 tag ends to trim. Uni to Uni is still a great knot for braid to mono connection.
Even when perfectly tied, an improved clinch knot can slip a bit on mono, and you can lose a fish if it is trimmed to close. Palomar will never slip.
Improved clinch for mono every single time! Problen solved. 😂
Improved cinch knot breaks to easy. The trilene knot is almost the same and a lot stronger.
