tying knots with different types of braid

<< < (2/2)

Earl Hamilton:
Just to widen the view-I am currently using Suffix Performance braid...Its the only braid we can get in the local shops, and was introduced because of the local Jap fratternity requesting it for their jigging. I have used Tuff in the past so I can make a comparison against that. I found the Tuff pretty easy to do a bimini. I generally do a 77 turn-no reason for the extra 7, just that I like 7's and finnish with an 8 turn Rizzuto. This was fairly easy to accomplish with the Tuff, but the Suffix is more effort, and tougher on the hands-but do-able. It does hold well, I have never had any slippage in tests, which I have had with  the Tuff. The Suffix will slip with a 50 turn though.
I have to admit that I am using the Suffix because of its availability here and I really don't know that much about it-any of you got any opinions or experience with it. I dont see much about it on the web.
Earl.

Brandon Khoo:
the one thing I have to say about the FINs is that the Rizutto feels like it holds really well with it.
