Hey, How do you tie off a bimini. I have always done a hitch on one side of the loop and then a 2-3 turn hitch on both. I recently saw a site where they pull the tag end though the secondary coils and clip. I have never had a problem with my method and never knew of another way. I mostly use mono but have used the same on braid. Anyone have any data or comments. | ||

| Thanks for the reply I have never seen this before and was wondering if it was stronger for braid or maybe an improvement for mono . It looks a little hard to learn for an old goat like me. Here is one of the links http://www.ausfish.com/platypus/biminitwist.htm | ||
