mono to mono knot to add line
My son had an issue with his reel after getting stuck on the bottom and forgetting to put his finger on the spool when he released the tension. Long story short we had to cut off a good amount of line to fix the issue and now I want to add back the line he lost.
I've done plenty of knots for shock leaders, and mono to braid but never between 2 lines of the same type and diameter. Which knot do you guys use or recommend? Or am I better off just stripping off what is left and starting from scratch. Thanks. |

Mono's cheap. Strip it and re-spool.

Re: mono to mono knot to add line
Uni to Uni is a good choice. Another option is to put braid backing and then add your mono you have left over.

Re: mono to mono knot to add line
All 3 responses are spot on...personally, I'd go for braid backing--all my reels are set up like that...
