The San Diego Jam Knot: Tie it! Test it! - How 2 Tuesday - Episode #791 Jul 18, 2023

Show notes

This week, I tied and tested the San Diego Jam Knot.

The San Diego Jam Knot is a reliable and straightforward knot used by many different anglers, saltwater and freshwater.

To tie it, start by passing the tag end of your line through the eye of the hook or lure and then double it back. Create a loop by twisting the doubled line seven times, ensuring that the loop is larger than the hook's eye. Next, pass the tag end through the loop you created, making sure it goes behind the doubled line. Moisten the knot, hold the tag end, and carefully tighten the knot by pulling the mainline and the tag end simultaneously. Once tight, trim the excess tag end.

The San Diego Jam Knot is known for its strength and reliability, making it a popular choice among anglers for various fishing applications. As you know, we have to test it!

How 2 Tuesday - FG Knot with Super Glue Test! Should You Super Glue Your Knots?!? - Episode #785 Jul 04, 2023

Show notes

The FG is the strongest knot from braid to fluorocarbon. It is a constriction knot and, when tied properly, it has the strongest connection. Last week I tested if super glue actually makes the clinch knot stronger. This week I took a look at the FG knot. Does super glue strengthen the FG knot? Should you use super glue even if there is an increase in knot breaking strength?

Show notes

I am back with another 'Mindset of a Champion' Physical Friday! Last week we talked needing consistency in order to begin your fitness journey. Maybe you want to run an Iron Man or compete at the Cross Fit Games. This week, we are looking at what it takes to take you from someone who works out consistently to being someone who competes. I believe that those who win on the greatest stage might have some insight on this question.

How 2 Tuesday - Should You Super Glue Your Knots?!? Tie it! Test it! - Episode #782 Jun 27, 2023

Show notes

Last week, I tested if spiting on your knot made any difference for the strength of your knot. This week we are testing another requested myth. Does super glue actually increase the strength of your knots? If it does increase the strength, is it worth it to use super glue? Using super glue on a small knot or on a boat often leads to sticky situations. This test will have to be pretty definitive for me to put up with gluing my fingers together.
