| sorry I don't have a picture, but if you type in pitzen knot and find a diagram, this knot has worked well for me. It takes a little to get used to but I haven't had a break yet, |

Location: In the slop! | Figure eight knot, but I would just crimp them. 90 lb. seven strand takes an 'A3' sleeve. Use good quality sleeves and crimping pliers, and you won't have any problems. |

Location: Mauston, Wisconsin | You can tie it w/ a grip knot. But you need a knot tyer. The "Tie-Fast" salt water model works great. I've tied the "Malin" 7-strand 90 lb w/o any problems. Gotta be careful about tightening the knot, but it can be done. But, by far easier to use a crimp. Good crimp's require a tool from the crimp sleeve manufacturer. Crimps made w/ standard pliers from the hardware store are crap!
