Blood Knot

BLOOD KNOT – This knot requires five turns of line, with each tag end around the overlapped

standing end of line. This is easy to do by making one series of turns and tucking the tag end

between the two lines and then repeating with the second line. It is a good knot if the lines are not

too dissimilar in diameters. It’s good for tying 15 pound test line to 20 pound test line; not good

for tying 15 pound test line to 50 pound test line.
