It’s a great knot, but If you are starting out and learn the Grinner you don’t really need the palomar as they do the same job. Equally once you know the grinner there are extensions of that knot that you will need at some stage in your fishing👍
It’s also one of the very easiest to tie if you aren’t used to holding fiddly loops of line, and the knot itself doesn’t contain lots of loops. It’s hard to see and very light in weight.
Much easier to do a figure of eight loop knot with a baiting needle pass the needle though the second loop twist then pull though the fist loop buy putting it in the latch of the needle. Easy stuff (and you can make them nice and small)
Many different ways to do it all work. This knot can also be used to loop to loop leaders on to your mainline in which case you need it to be much bigger 👍 on hooklinks Harry prefers a bigger loop that extends from the anti tangle sleeve, this gives that section of the rig more stiffness and reduces tangles. Just his preference like having a small loop is yours
@@fox_international yes I agree with larger loops for leaders and for PVA bag work I was referring to the hook link when using quick links and sleeves Try it with a baiting needle it works really well and you can control the size of the loop better
Absolutely, this video has been made as a reference point to anyone who is starting out and/or confused with what they should use or how exactly to tie them
