Knot Magic (Item# KM01) $10.95
Description
Tie Better Fishing Knots
Which Knot ?
Knots dictate line strength, as they're often the weakest link in the chain.
Poor knots can waste up to 70% of Rated Line Strength, so your choice of fishing knot is important.
Many knots are used in recreational fishing, but most have specific uses (or limitations). Fishing should be relaxing, so we chose to "Keep it Simple" and use the best multi purpose knot, unless a specialist knot is required (eg: multi hook rigs, where we use snell for the top hook and a uni knot for the bottom hook).
Availability: Usually ships in 5-7 business days.
