Not sure about that. I thought the Alberto/Albright (and mods) were variable in wraps up, and/or wraps down.
So I could Mod Albright 15 up, 10 down....and it'd still be an Albright/Alberto variant.
Heck if I know.

The modified Albright is the only one I use. Much easier to tie on dry land though 
. I usually pre-tie mine at the house or prior to launch.

That's what happened to the smallmouth of a lifetime for me. Reached down to lip him and"ping". Vanish "%%$$#@@$^&*". Truth.
rubba bubba reply :
Man that's a lot of wraps. I do 5 up and 5 back with the Alberto and have never had it fail yet.
gotarheelz14 reply :
I have never had an alberto knot, WITH VANISH as a leader, fail on me. I really like Vanish. It's cheap, and it's pretty d**n abrasion resistant. The only problem I ever really had with it was that it had the memory of an elephant so I would never recommend using it as a main line. Other than that, I think it's the perfect source of leader material. And yes, I throw it in rocks, timber, grass, razor blades, knife edges, and running chain saws....no problems. .
As far as the alberto knot itself, I have had tons of lures get stuck, and every time I pull and break them off, the line breaks at the lure knot, or somewhere where it has been nicked along the leader, than before the leader/main alberto knot.

To many wraps, and it takes to much time.

I can tie that knot just as fast as any other connection knot that you use.
