The best knot for joining together two fishing lines of approximately the same diameter. This knot can be used with braided lines. If you find the Blood Knot cumbersome to tie, try the Double Uni - it's easier!

The blood knot is an extremly strong knot that, once mastered, is easy to tie, even in the dark with cold fingers.

Same as Uni knot but double the strength.

Probably not as strong as the knots above but not far off either and miles easier to tie. This is often the first knot an angler learns.
