Uni Knot
BeginnerHook & Lure
A do-it-all knot that works for tying to a hook, joining two lines, or even making a loop — hence the name. A series of wraps cinches down into a compact, strong knot on almost any line type, which is why it's a favorite for anglers who don't want to memorize a different knot for every job.

How to Tie It
- Thread the tag end through the eye and lay it back alongside the standing line, forming a loop.
- Wrap the tag end around both lines inside the loop 5-6 times.
- Moisten the wraps and pull the tag end to snug the coils together.
- Slide the finished knot down to the eye by pulling the standing line, then trim the tag end.

Tips
- Add an extra wrap or two when tying with slippery braided line to keep it from slipping loose under a hard hookset.
