In this episode I go over in detail what is considered by many anglers to be the easiest, quickest and strongest knot to tie your braid main line to your leader, the Yucatan Knot. Developed by sport fishermen years ago to connect a smaller pound test main line to a heavier pound test , or thicker diameter leader line, this knot eventually became the "Go To" knot for connecting braid main line to leader because of its simplicity and strength factors. If you're looking for a solid knot to connect 2 fishing lines together, have questions about braid and leader, or you just can't seem to figure out how to tie a leader on properly without a swivel... Then this episode's for you.
Enjoy,
Tight lines & good vibes.

Due to a head injury it's hard for me to learn new things. I've viewed several other videos on how to tie this knot. Yours is the clearest and the easiest to understand. Thank you!

It can and will improve potentially stay positive, look into the red light or cap frequency devices I know they’re expensive but using them first thing in the am

@leodanlopez2170 Год назад

Another great knot for my notes, thank you sir !! Learning a lot from you. 👍

@Masophere 29 дней назад

I use thos knot on my ultralight set up and it is great. Sometimes it takes me a couple attempts to get it to sit right as it slips but when I get it right it's perfect

Hi Heath, The Yucatan looks just as easy as the Alberto knot. I've been using the Alberto, but I will try the Yucatan. I went fishing last Thursday, in the Indian River Lagoon and caught five Black Drum. They ranged 11 to 16 inches. Not big but it was fun to catch a few fish in the afternoon. Say "Hi" to the Crew. Take care and have fun, Mickey

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Год назад

Hi Mickey glad you were finally able to get out and wet a line. Honestly the Yucatan knot is more of a trolling/ big game fishing knot, it's kinda chunky whereas the Alberto knot is more streamline and conducive for casting. Excited to hear about your fishing adventures. Hope all is well. Everyone here says "Hi"... take care

@1539Mickey Год назад

Hi Heath, I cast a lot from shore. I guess the Alberto knot might be better. Thanks for the info. Take care and good luck, Mickey

@humboldtfisher8319 11 месяцев назад

GT knot is the only heavy braid to mono connection that retains 100% strength. The Alberto tested at a measly 42% strength. As tested by the IGFA. Look it up!

@Prone-Ski_BX Год назад

Heath your the man.. I thought you was blowing smoke when you said you were going to make this. 👍

@imeyouthem9303 Год назад

Hey Heath, thanks again for making me a better fisherman. I wonder if as a follow up you would consider a breaking strength test of the Yucatan, PR, FG knots, etc.?

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Год назад

Thanks a million... So, knots rarely break, it's the line around them that gives, knots do fail however if tied improperly. Thanks for the premise of an idea though, I'll put it on my list, will make for interesting conversation.

@benduea2713 Год назад

Nice Heath. FG is knot of choice for me. Used to be the yuc!

@Prone-Ski_BX Год назад

The FG takes to long and will fail if not done right. This one is strong and easy to do fast if you get broken off.

@rickbold9337 Год назад

Hi Heath, as a shock leader while surface casting, what is your preference for mono leader length and does this knot cast through the rod eyelets smoothly?

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Год назад

Hi Rick, I would not use this knot for casting... I'd use either an Alberto knot... or a combination of a spider hitch loop tied to a no name knot... I your main line is braid you'll need at least 20+ feet of leader for shock and presentation

@rickbold9337 Год назад

@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing thanks so much

@TheIconicFisherman 8 месяцев назад

I mean technically the FG knot is the strongest connection knot according to multiple tests that have been done by many different people but it's also the most difficult to learn to tie. My personal favorite connection knots are the Yucatan knot if I'm out in the field or the Alberto knot if I'm at home pre-tying up my rigs because the Alberto knot is more difficult to tie in the field.

@Prone-Ski_BX Год назад

The Yucatan,,, that's my knot baby. No need for the FG. Battle-tested,, on the Gulf side of Florida and the Atlantic.

@1965JB 26 дней назад

I tied this knot and it worked perfectly the first time. I don’t know what I did that time, but every single time I’ve tied it since then the leader just slips out of the knot. Back to Mr. Alberto for me.

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing 26 дней назад

Alberto knot is great

@HankWright777 Год назад

Is Yucatán better than Spider Hitch w/ no name knot?

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Год назад

Great question... it all depends... they are both solid ways of connecting main line to leader. Yucatan is more chunky, made for big game Rods with rollers... spider hitch to no-name is more streamline, flows through the guides of a spinner more smoothly. Personally, I use spider hitch to no-name more often

@jkoco199 Год назад

Because there is mono involved, don't you need to wet the knot? Great video and an easy knot.

@Prone-Ski_BX Год назад

That knot can handle the business, trust me...!

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Год назад

No need to wet the mono

@rolandvance6663 Год назад

would hat be good small enough for jigging rod eye

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing Год назад

Personally for SPJ of that's what you're asking about, I'd go with the Alberto knot... this is more appropriate for big game fishing

@rolandvance6663 Год назад

@@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing yes SPJ thanks

So about 1/2 the time I can pull the leaded loose. Can't figure out what I am doing wrong...Must be me, doesn't look like rocket science!

@jimcallaham1392 10 месяцев назад

What is the difference between Yucatan knot and SC knot?

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing 10 месяцев назад

they are tied te same way. Only difference I can see, is the difference in number of wraps... yucatan being 6, sc being 12... but with the sc you are pulling the tag end straight, with the yucatan the tag holds a loop. To me, they look like the same knot, just with a different name.

@jimcallaham1392 10 месяцев назад

@dougiemac8417 11 месяцев назад

Hey Heath. That knot is a lot simpler than some other knots I’ve seen to tie the two line types. But is it the strongest? If not, what to you think the strongest knot for that purpose is?

@SouthFloridaSaltwaterFishing 11 месяцев назад

I was asked about the Yucatan knot. And I wanted to show how simple it is, which you pointed out. And yes, for it's simplicity, it is the strongest knot of it's type. There are other alternatives, like the alberto knot, but they're a little more involved.
