How to tie leader and braid by PR knot using knotters.
1. Thread the braid main line from the top of needle and hold the end between the black rubber bands. Pull line and wrap it to body matal spool by 12 turns.
2. Hold the main line end and leader together, and then slowly wrap the braid loosely with some gaps for 7cm 3 inches.
3. Then, make line column backwards without any gap over the loose wrapping for 7cm.
4. Remove the knotter and treat the end of braid by making half hitch for at least 7 times.
5. Cut the excess lines and done. Please tighten the knot slowly to test if the knot is made tight.
