Which knots are recommended for STROFT multifilament fishing lines?
WAKU and the German fishing magazine “Blinker” have published a knot pamphlet „Die wichtigsten Knoten für Angler” (German language only), a copy of which we would be happy to send to you free of charge, see: Contact/Legal Notice. In order to take full advantage of STROFT GTP’s tensile strength one should be particularly careful when tying knots or connecting terminal tackle. Rig-rings and swivels are highly recommended as well as “no-knots”. In this fashion it’s easy to reach higher breaking strains than with knotted loops, blood knots, double grinner or other knots. If one takes the trouble to use a needle to form a loop, then one is rewarded with a connection that utilises 100% of the tensile strength of the line. Only in this way can one really exploit the full potential of Dyneema fibres.
