    Hybrid line to braid with FG knot...it works

    I guess I was bored enough while tying on baits that I thought I would see if a hybrid line (Yozuri in this case) would work with the FG knot going to a braided line. Tied right up like it would with fluoro, and I could not break the knot by trying to pull on both lines reasonably hard (10lb hybrid and 10lb braid). Tied it a few more times to make sure it was not a fluke, and it worked every time and had no know issues.

    I like the Yozuri Hybrid. Its a great line and I use it for many applications. Its my go to for having a leader in front of my braid.

    Try the Shin Kukae Alberto. Faster, strong, smaller than the FG Knot.

    I've been using that Shin knot for a while now with no issues. If anything is better it's going to be pretty marginal and more time consuming. I've tried a few..uni knot, fg knot and no difference except more time. Imo
