What is the BEST way to rig saltwater 50#-80# lines for tuna & other larger Fish. What size leader ect. Info on bimini twist (how to tie). I haven't been fishing for 15 years and will be going to north carolina sometime this year. Good places near n.c.,s.c. border.<br />THANKS,<br />Land locked in Tenn.<br />Kevin

Re: to tie or not to tie

One of the best knots is the Palomar knot and it is fast and easy to tie when going from line to swivel or line to hook. <br />The other knot that I tie is a Duncan loop knot<br />The other alternative is using crimps.<br />The bimini is hard to tie till you get the hang of it. Allot of times it is used from backing to running line,dacron type lines.<br />Try that site that Bigfun putup there it should have the palomar knot.
