How to tie a PATERNOSTER RIG | DROPPER LOOP easily and correctly 

This is one of the best videos I've seen, demonstrating how to tie a paternoster rig. Doing it on the black cloth with white coloured line clearly outlines how to tie the rig.

Thank you my adhd brain couldn’t comprehend the visual of other dropper loops on RU-vid, yours was the best visual and actually understood the whole process. 🙏thank you!

Thanks for that Greg. The granny knot at the hook is a great idea.

Sooo Happy I found your video. I've been trying to learn how to do a high/low rig for hours through other videos. Yours made it so simple and so easy to follow! Thanks so much for taking the time to do this. I'm going fishing tomorrow in the Pacific. Hopefully put the knots to the test!

Well done! Love the knots and simple but detailed commentary.

This video is simple and easy to understand. Large white line on dark background, slowly laid out is perfect to help me learn this quickly. Thank you for making it!

You just gave me a great idea with the dropper loop knot on the hook

Thanks man! Simplest and most effective rig to make! Praise man!

One of my most often used knots, it's what I use for catfishing. I find it a lot of fun to tie as well.

This is the best video! Great clear instructions and visual aids! You are very talented teacher!

a natural instructor you are, looking forward to more videos.

Nice Palomar on the end of the loop knot. Good idea!

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks for a well explained video !

Great easy to follow vid. I simply drill out the holes of the sinkers allowing the knot to pass through and thus a shorter loop. Steve 🇦🇺

the granny knot after going through the hook eye is Sweet! Hard to believe but I ain't seen that trick before. Thanks

Quite impressive! Thanks for sharing your expertise.

Great video! Very clearly explained. Well done and thank you!

Superb demonstration - thanks.

Very informative thanks. The hook position is much better if you use a loop, put in from the front, especially with recurve/circle hooks

Great vid, best on RU-vid for this type of rig. Thanks a lot!

Awsum simple and effective 👍👍

Very good information ! simple and easy to understand. thanks a lot.😊

the best explanation. Great Tutorial

Great vid!!! I just tied 6 and it was super easy.

This is type of content I appreciate!

4:30 - a single loop palomar essentially. I've been looping through but will definitely be doing this from now on.

Hi Greg Great explanation , thank you very much

Great Video. Thanks Mate from USA

Thank you! Very well done video.

AWESOME VIDEO, THANKS FOR SHARING. TIGHT LINES, MATE!

grear explanation thank you very much from saudia arabia

Great video Greg, will be using these tips next time Im live baiting for fingermark, thanks mate.

Great work Greg! Some handy hints there along the way, I learnt a couple of things! Keep up the great work mate 👍🎣

stopped by this channel because I wanted to learn how to connect fishing line always success bro Nice to meet you

Class video. I learned a lot. Thank you

Excelente. Explicação simples e objetiva. Obrigado 🇧🇷

This is my go-to line. I use 15 lb. Test and night fish a lot and when you pair this line with a blacklight, you have no problem seeing your line.

Great video and I really like the granny knot 😂

Thanks for the vid! Didn't realize one alpine butterfly (w/extra twists) and one Palomar knot was all it consists of, I was overthinking the process.

Well done mate. Well explained.

thank you from australia country

the second way you tied the hook is called a palomar knot, very good 100% knot if done properly

Very good, clear as day👍👍

Your the best buddy, good work...

Great balls of heifer dust, I,m still working on a double uni.

Very informative Greg, thanks for sharing mate 👌

Thanks for this video.

Thank you great video

Great video! Can you cut the hook look to make it longer? My guess is no it'll unravel

Thanks for sharing this.

great work Greg. tight lines mate.

Tying this drop loop can be so aggravating! Sometimes its cake easy, othertimes you couldnt tie it if life depended. I cannot figure why or what I do differently. One side just "slips" and pulls out.

Hey Greg. Great vid mate thanks

So many things in life, such as tying knots, seem difficult with two hands, but could be pretty easy with three hands. Makes me wonder why we evolved with only two when a third-especially a center hand-would be so useful.

Great video thanks 😊

Nice video - I've been tying this rig for crappie jigs since I was a little kid when my dad taught me and I've never known the name of the rig

Thanks Greg, learnt something today.

Nice and easy to follow even a noob like me can follow

Dont know why but at least have the time the knot slips and the loop disappears leaving me with just crinkled leader. Very frustrating. What could i be doing wrong? When i hold the loop in my teeth and pull the ends the loop just shrinks and disappears under tension

Definitely every bait I hook I use the Paloma nice

Thank you

Thanks heaps mate

That's awesome. I wish I had of seen this a few days ago before i went fishing (I'm still learning). When you tie the granny knot on the hook does that mean you can't change hooks?

Well explained cheers 🍻🎣

At 3:39 is everything😂😂

Brilliant.

If im using a 40lb braid will a 15lb be too light for a break away on snags? Ive never considered that before but it sounds like a good idea. Maybe 7 or 8 inches of a 15lb mono just snap if it snags?

thanks Brother

I prefer to tie the dropper loop first, and then the weight loop. I find it easier to get the weight close to the hook, if I really want that bait on the bottom.

The gaps between the knots made me lose my weight quickly. I'd probably just tie on the weight a different way. How the hook is tied on was fine

Great video and well explained. Very easy to follow 👌

Noice man I do drop shot mostly I’ve been eyeballing this rig imma try it just need a strong snap swivel for big cats to not break it but I hate it when it tangled on fish and nets I use punch baits cj shad is bdass and triple sss stinkbait is king too I stick to those I really don’t use my more cut up bait fish are stubborn here

Hi Greg, just been practicing this for next time I get out. Question ? I’m doing the overhand knot on the dropper with some 7/0 octopus beak hooks aka suicide hook with the bent hook shank ! Does this same overhand knot thing work with these hooks ? Or should I stick to a straight shank hook ? It does sit slightly funny would it effect it or will be ok or what’s best ? I noticed your circles had bent shanks …

Good pédagogie !!!

A simple single overhand knot for the sinker is all you need , it will pull out if your sinker gets hung up .

very cool, I prefer to use a figure 8 on a bite knot personally

Can you cut the loop for rigs intended for smaller fish and feathers?

Is this for saltwater fishing? Or is it gonna work also for walleye and whitebass fishing? Thanks

Hey Greg, I was wondering if you had a depth that you switch from circle hooks instead of j hooks? (Assuming you are running braid mainline to your rig) I wonder about this myself and wanted to see what you reckon :)

Hi Greg, do you use a swivel to connect the paternoster to the main line or just tie the paternoster in the main line , cheers

3:20 giggity

does anyone know if the knot he tied to join the sink break away to the main line at 1:25 was a quick way to do a Double Uni knot? Or was it some other knot?

Thanks For the Info Friend. Please can you tell us the Lengths in Cms? Cheers Mate..

好棒👍

👍😊

Is that dyneema on the first rig? How would you attach that to the main line?

Saliva on the knot that looks like balls 😂

Sorry, what that looks like at 3:15 plus salivary lubrication made me bust out laughing. I never grew up. Appreciate the guidance, though

👋👌👍

3:25 😂😂

Yeah I also usually have two big fish on my line at once 🤥

the knot to tie the hook on is a "Palomar" knot ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TFk_Ktw2f1w.html

3:20 Lubrication..............................lol

Great explanation but not quite as easy with real thing

My brain is so immature lol

My dirty mind 😅

you’re branch line is double the size than you’re main line. It should be the other way around. 😅

so simple a drunk can do it 😂 (you can slow down the video if to drunk)
