No tangle twisted paternoster rig

[Guest Guest123456789]

Hi Raiders,

Asking for your help please tieing a twisted paternoster rig. I've been using the video below and have had limited success tieing a twisted paternoster knot. The reason I need this knot is Brauer when fishing from the beach the standard paternoster knots get tangled. I also like the idea of using lighter leader because the twist means less chance of bust offs from toothy critters.

Here is the video below, the guy talks real fast and the video doesn't show real well what exactly he is doing. Any help or info provided will be appreciated:

I use it works great and defiantly helps with less tangles. easier to tie a few at home!

I find it easier to just twist from 1 end with the other end still on spool and in the middle you can use spare hand to help the kink form. I also pull all the twists out to tighten the kink end then allow to twist back up.

do some goggling there are better explanations out there.

Thanks so much! That guys way is a lot easier. I used his video to learn the sliding snell knot as well - great resource.

I use a 2 hook patternoster rig with short 10-15cm normal dropper loops covered in clear plastic tubing for the same reasons you mention with excellent results you may want to try.

Clear drinking straws work well also for the dropper to stand off the mainline.

Here's one I have made up ready to go.

Sorry about the photo quality from my phone taken indoors.

Cheers.

Thanks mate. Wouldn't the straw spook the fish?

Give it a go and see how you go for yourself.I've used it a few times when visiting the Bil in coledale(Wollongong)from the beach and haven't noticed if it makes the fish wary as it still catches them.

I like the video. That's a good knot for the droppers. Have to use that going forward. Thanks for the info. Nice and easy to tie could do that in the dark on the beach no problems
