How to Tie the Berkley Braid Knot
- Double the braid and pass the loop through the hook eye.
- Loop it back and pass through the eye a second time.
- With the doubled line, wrap around the standing line 8 times.
- Thread the doubled tag end through the double loop at the eye.
- Moisten and pull slowly to tighten. Trim excess.
