The Albright knot is a fishing knot for connecting two unequal or different cords or ropes.
Names and history
The Albright knot is used to connect two unevenly strong or different ( monofilament or braided ) fishing lines, e.g. B. Main line / leader (when fly fishing as a connection between the fly leader and the fly line). It got its name from the famous American fishing guide and tarpon angler Jimmie Albright .
Knot
A bay is made with the thicker fishing line . The thinner fishing line is put through the bay and wrapped at least ten times around the thicker line towards the eye. After that, the end of the thin cord is put through the eye and tightened. The protruding ends are cut off.
Through the bay like at the beginning of the Schotstek
about 10 to 12 wraps around the thick end
close up and cut off protruding ends.

similarity
The Albright knot is basically a modification of the whipping . While the end of the whipping (“ B ” in the picture ) is being pulled tight, at the Albright knot it is the bay of the “thicker” fishing line to be tied which is used to pull tight.
