			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Albright Knot</strong> is the perfect knot for joining mono to braid, which makes it the ideal knot for <strong>combi link rigs</strong> or leaders. Below is a step by step photographic sequence showing how to tie <strong>The Albright Knot</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Step 1</strong></p>
<p>Form a loop in your mono or fluorocarbon.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-600" title="albright_knot1" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 2</strong></p>
<p>Thread your braid through the nylon loop</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-601" title="albright_knot2" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot2.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 3</strong></p>
<p>Whip the braid around the nylon going away from the loop about 5-6 turns. if you</p>
<p>are a belt and braces person you can whip another 5-6 turns going back towards</p>
<p>loop but I have never found it necessary. The version shown makes for a neater</p>
<p>more unobtrusive knot.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-602" title="albright_knot3" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot3.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 4</strong></p>
<p>Thread tag end of the braid back through the nylon loop the same way it came in</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot4.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-603" title="albright_knot4" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot4.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 5</strong></p>
<p>Gently tease the knot together</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot5.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-604" title="albright_knot5" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot5.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 6</strong></p>
<p>Bed the knot down tightly, it is probably best not to moisten this knot before tightening</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot6.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-605" title="albright_knot6" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot6.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 7</strong></p>
<p>Trim tag ends</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot7.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-606" title="albright_knot7" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot7.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Step 8</strong></p>
<p>The finished <strong>Albright Knot</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-607" title="albright_knot" src="http://www.carpcatchers.biz/carpcatchersblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/albright_knot.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="357" /></a></p>
<p>Best fishes,</p>
<p>John</p>
