Arbor knot 2025
LipRipper1 reply :
Are there any other line to spool knots other than the arbor
NoahWatts reply :
I use a San Diego Jam
Team9nine reply :
I use a simple Uni - shouldn't matter much. If a fish takes you down to that knot, it will be irrelevant which knot you tied

LipRipper1 reply :
When i hook into a fish does the line pull at the knot i made at the spool. For example i tied a arbor knot and i have 120 yards of line does it pull at the knot i made
Team9nine reply :
Nope - Only chance of that ever happening would be if you spooled with straight braid or superline, and even then, the line wouldn't pull on the knot until it completely unwound/slipped from the spool. If using nylon or copoly, no chance.

Outlaw86 reply :
Generally the knot tying the line to the spool doesn't come under stress until all of your line is out, so unless whatever is on the other end has 'spooled' you, you should be safe.

Unless you make a 120 yard cast ~ No.

If you're using a line with stretch in it, a good ol' fashioned square knot can work well.

I was watching tacklejunky81 and he said some people have just put the line through the wiffle of the spool and not tie it i would never do that
LipRipper1 reply :
Is that all i need or do i need a stronger knot
papajoe222 reply :
A small piece of electrical tape does the job. There's really no need to tie the line to the spool as I've never had a bass 'spool' me and I've never heard or read of it happening. They just don't make long runs that you need to concern yourself with running out of line.
fishnkamp reply :
Back up, if you are asking if that knot is best for attaching your line to the spool on your reel. then yes it is a good knot for that purpose. It is the only time I use that knot. Make sure you get it tied correctly and it is tight because if not your line will slip on the spool and it will act like your drag is not working. We get a lot of those complaints like "I just bought a new reel and it does not work"
You will need to know several other knots like the double uni knot to tie two lines together ,the palomar and trilene knots are good knots for tying on lures etc. I hope I ansered your question you left it kinda vague.
LipRipper1 reply :
Yes it did i know alot of knots. I was wondering if there was a stronger spool knot. But know im not worried about it
LipRipper1 reply :
Do i need a real strong knot for my line to spool connection

I have heard of people not even tying a knot just putting tape over it. Does that work
Bluebasser86 reply :
Yes. If a fish gets you to your spool knot it isn't going to matter how you attached it most likely.

Is it better than the arbor
Bluebasser86 reply :
Easier to tie, so that makes it better to me. I've never had any other way to rate or test it, since a fish hasn't ever gotten me to my spool knot.
LipRipper1 reply :
I like the uni better. I tied the arbor and it slips a little bit. I was using seaguar invizx
Chris at Tech reply :
Just tie a good knot at the spool and stop worrying...

That's all i do, I'm not worried about being spooled for what I fish for. If I was fishing for larger fish, then maybe.
Josh Smith reply :
I don't like tape gunk though I used to use that method. Now, I just use an overhand knot.

I do it sometimes. Never had a problem. Even with braid. It's called a noknot.
Mike L reply :
I've only got spooled 1 time in my life and that was from an estimated 90# Tarpon in Boca Grande Pass Fla. I don't worry about it for any fresh water fish.
Tie a uni, pull it tight and I'm good.

WRB reply :
Argot knot is a square knot, easy to tie line onto a reel so use it.
