A Surgeons knot that you go through 5 times with rather than two?

I learned it with 6 turns. Wonder what the difference is. A lot of people use 3 way swivels these days.

Wait why tie knots when there are knotless hooks out there!

I caught this a couple of weeks ago using a 3 way swivel. I tie the swivel straight to the braid, 30 pound to the hook and 15 pound to the sinker.

It's nothing more than a five-turn surgeon's knot (as mentioned) or a doubled uni-knot. But I suppose if somebody wants to name a knot after himself, he can...

Wasn't throwing stones. It looks like a perfectly good knot, and if it's a modification of something else that the good Mr Rose developed, he CAN name it after himself.
Now for the Rocky knot, do I combine the Trilene knot with a Uni for hook tying -- or back-back unis with the ends tucked between the strands blood knot style for joining lines? Decisions decisions... |

Basically yeah, it's a surgeons loop with 5 wraps rather than two. It's definitely stronger than the 2 turn surgeons loop. If you guys think you can use it great! If the knot offends anybody for some reason then don't use it. Just showing an alternative to the standard dropper loop is all. I have a few more really offending knots for everyone later!
By the way nice fish mike!!! Didn't know you got a PA either!

Please quit trying to help Tony, your just creating drama. Since the "I want timely reports" drama has fizzled out the boys need something new to sink their teeth into Now show that spectra to leader knot, the one you showed me the other day... But call it the Fulrac knot to better the chance of a good old fashion drama hook up.
