Featured Replies

  • Super User

For those that use Yo-Zuri Hybrid #12 lb. for spinnerbaits , bladed jigs , swim jigs , etc. what is your favorite knot to tie using this line ?

San Diego Jam, doubled through eye. It will straighten a 5/0 Gammie. Brian.

Double Shindo for all non-braid lines... 

I use a Palomar, but it seems a lot of guys have trouble tying it correctly. A Pitzen or SanDiego Jam is just as strong, IMO

When I use to use YoZuri hybrid in 12 # test, always tied with a san Diego jam knot, never had any issues.

I tie an Improved Clinch 90% of the time. No issues.

Palomar for single hooks, Pitzen for trebles.

I have no slippage issues with a properly tied IC. You can if the loop twists while tightening. Keep the loop untwisted and wet the knot before tightening and it’s a good knot. 

Take your pick with YZH. You can probably double overhand knot and be good. The line is super forgiving and break strength is well above stated.
