Developed to prevent slipping, the Berkley braid knot is one of the strongest terminal fishing knots you can use for attaching hooks, lures, and swivels with braided fishing line.
The Berkley braid fishing knot was created for use with braided lines that can be doubled and comfortably threaded through the eye of a hook, lure, or swivel. The advantages of using this terminal knot are that it maintains a strong grip, resists slippage, and spreads any strain over several wraps of line rather than at a single point. You can use this knot for both freshwater and saltwater fishing situations.
Despite its name, the Berkley braid knot is a strong all-around knot that you can tie with monofilament and fluorocarbon lines as well, but excels when used with thin diameter braided lines. Berkley braid knot strength has been documented at 62% of original line strength and doesn’t require you to pass your lure, hook, or swivel through a loop.
