Tauten LineWelder systems make creating Fast & Strong fishing line connections quicker and easier than ever! These advanced systems create a molded-in-place polymer sleeve produces a strong joint that does not decrease available line strength. The weakest point in a conventionally knotted line is the knot.
What is a line welder?
The Tauten LineWelder is a handheld, battery-operated device that bonds up to 12 lb test monofilament, 12 lb test fluorocarbon and 10-50 lb test braid lines in less than a minute.Designed to resist ingress of dirt and water, the LineWelder is at home in your shop or in your tackle box.
Can I melt fishing line together?
NO.
Fishing line is made of various plastic compounds. These can melt if exposed to heat.
What is the strongest line to line knot?
DOUBLE SURGEON’S KNOT
DOUBLE SURGEON’S KNOT
Not only is this knot easy to tie, it also happens to be one of the strongest line-to-line knots you can use.
Does burning a knot make it stronger?
If you melt the nylon line then it acts like a weld and makes it stronger. This technique is used by anglers with fishing line and works as long as you don’t burn through the line.
What’s the strongest fishing line?
braided line
Modern synthetic fiber-based braided line is the strongest fishing line on the market, and over 10 times stronger than steel, which brings along its own benefits and limitations. Because it’s thinner, you can fit way more of it on a spool, enabling use with much smaller spools and reels than with other lines.
What is the best knot to use with fluorocarbon?
Palomar Knot
Palomar Knot
In fact, it is the recommended knot for Berkley FireLine. It also works well with fluorocarbon fishing line. Strong and easy to tie, the Palomar resists slipping and has retained 100 percent of the line’s original strength in Berkley Knot Wars testing.
What knot do bass pros use?
Palomar Knot
Palomar Knot is likely the most common knot used in most bass fishing applications. It works very well with braid, fluorocarbon and mono – the three most common types of line.
What does FG stand for in fishing knot?
FG stands for “fine grip,” and is not like a typical knot. Usually, knots loop up, over, and around another fishing line. But the FG knot wraps around the other line.
What is a 100% knot?
The 100 Percent Arbor Knot is the creation of the late Bill Nash as part of his Flycasting Systems and it provides for a method of attaching the backing line to a fly reel that delivers 100% line strength (one hundred percent of the rated breaking strength of the backing line).
What does FG knot stand for?
fine grip
First, the FG, which seems to stand for “fine grip,” isn’t like a typical knot that loops up, over and around the other line. It simply wraps around the other line. More specifically, the braid wraps around the monofilament in a cross hatched pattern similar to a Chinese Finger.
Can you smell with fluorocarbon?
The Snell Knot in Braid and Fluorocarbon
Plenty of bass anglers rely on braided mainline, and fluorocarbon leaders are as common as outboards.But the good news is that the Snell works well in braid and fluoro.
What is the best line for pike fishing?
Strong mainline
Both braid and mono are ideal for pike fishing so long as they are up to the job. If you intend fishing with a mono mainline then opt for a line of 12lb or even 15lb breaking strain, and if you’re intending to use braid, go for a 30lb breaking strain.
What is the Orvis knot used for?
Uses: The Orvis Knot was invented by Larry Becker who submitted it in a contest held by the Orvis Company to find the best knot to attach a line to the hook. Similar Knots: The Orvis Knot performs a similar function as other line-to-hook knots such as the Trilene, Palomar, Uni (Duncan), and Improved Clinch Knots.

The Davy knot broke at an average strength of 31.6 lbs of pressure. And the weaker of two Orvis knots broke at an average of 36.6 lbs of pressure.
Can you fly fish in the ocean?
Yes, you can fly fish any body of water that contains fish, provided you are legally allowed to do so. This includes everything from small streams and big rivers to ponds, lakes, and even the ocean. In fact, the wide array of fly fishing opportunities is often what gives the sport its appeal.
What is a welded loop in fly line?
Modern fly lines often come with a welded loop that allows an angler to quickly switch out leaders with a loop to loop connection.The welded loop on a fly line is often the first point of failure as it receives a bulk of the stress applied to the line when you’re hooked up with a fish.
