PR/FG knot in 30lb or less.
Submitted by cudbfishn on Tue, 2011-07-19 13:22
Was wondering how this knot would go in 30lb braid to 30lb leader or lighter and if anyone uses it. Cant find much in search.
Have been using bimini/GT. I use PR/FG in pe5 or more.

The FG is fine for under
The FG is fine for under 30lb, starts to get a little fiddly under 10lb though.
I use the PR for 30lb and over and FG for 30lb and under.

Hey Sammy, how come I had to
Hey Sammy, how come I had to cut out the stinking albright yoiu had on the 10 lb braid on the certate and replace with an FG.......haha.
I do FG's in all line classes from PE8 to PE 0.5, no dramas. Very easy to do and ultra strong.

yep, I do FG in 6lb to 40lb.
PR for heavy work (pe5-pe8).
They are both friction knots, so work just as well as each other. I just prefer PR in heavier classes - bobbin allows you to apply heaps of tension to the leader.
