How to Tie Bimini Twist
The bimini twist is one of the better methods for developing a strong double in fishing line. It is one of the few that works quite well when working the super-lines such as braid or gelspun line.
It looks a little difficult to tie, however, with just a little practice it is easy to master and great when worked in light to medium lines. If chasing larger game fish go with a plait, however, for lighter game fish it’s quite okay.
There is always a lot of debate about the Bimini Twists ability to retain original line strength. In reality that varies considerably with line type, structure and the pulling motion inflicted.
Stretch lines tend to retain the original strength better than non stretch. A sudden jerk on any line will see it break at less weight than a moderate constantly growing weight. In the case of the super lines such as braid and gelspun, the more twists you place in the formation of the knot the better. The more twists, the longer the knot, the longer the knot the greater the give or stretch in it. If using the Bimini Twist with super lines, be sure to set your drag correctly and use a rod with some flex. Both these factors will help reduce any shock when a fast running fish strikes and help the bimini twist retain strength.
When tying a Bimini Twist in super lines, increase the number of twists to 60 or even more.
Doubles and loops are a major part of sports fishing and loop to loop connections are essential for the connection of wind on leaders and for the connection of fly line to backing from the reel. There are a number of differing methods of tying the Bimini Twist. The method demonstrated at www.marinews.com is one of the simplest to master.
