knots

I have heard you guys talk about the nail knot and the uni knot...exactly what is that?

If it makes any difference I fish for trophy flatheads and channel cats in Kansas, fishing mostly with 80 pound power pro on my spinning tackle and 40 pound Suffix mono on baitcasting tackle....

Thanks

hi T,
the most important knot in the system is the bimini. It's a knot that makes a loop, which gives you two line going into the next knot, that tests out at fractions from 100%. It allows any knots tied down stream to be almost double the strength of the main line.
The uni and nail knot are the same. You can look them up in any book.
