The knots

Aussie plait · Australian braid doubleMaking a double line for a loop-to-loop leader connection, as an alternative to the Bimini twist. The finished knot passes easily through rod guides or rollers.

BiminiMaking a double line with a loop at the end, for loop-to-loop leader connections or as the doubled line in knots such as the Yucatan.

Homer Rhodes · Homer RhodeHeavy-leader free-swing loop for lures when you want action without a tiny tippet loop knot.

King sling loopTying a lure, hook or fly to braid or mono with an open loop, so the bait can move more naturally.

Kryston loop · Kryston non-slipA fixed loop that ties a hook or lure to nylon monofilament. NetKnots reports it failing in fluorocarbon well below the line's rated strength.

Angler’s loopA small fixed loop in the end of a leader, tippet or fly line that lies in line with the standing line. Commonly used for loop-to-loop connections between fly line and leader.

Spider hitch doubleForming a double line quickly. NetKnots says it is not as durable as a Bimini twist but is much faster and easier to tie.

Double surgeon’s loopA fixed loop tied quickly in the end of a line, for a loop-to-loop connection or to let a lure or fly move freely on the loop.
