Fishing Explained gives the improved clinch knot its close-up
Green line, a red hook and a second loop anchor the most-watched of three new tutorials.

GREATEST fishing knot of all time
Seven wraps, then a small but important extra step: Fishing Explained's hands feed the loose end through a second loop before pulling the knot tight. That's the improved clinch knot demonstrated in "GREATEST fishing knot of all time", the week's most-watched new upload, with roughly 84,000 views.
The title makes a grand entrance; the demonstration gets straight to work. An off-camera narrator guides green line through a red hook's eye, winds it around the main line and shows how the two loops finish the connection. It's exactly the kind of small tackle detail the channel builds its identity around, rather than another tale about the fish that got away.
Viewers have their own knot preferences. The Palomar gets a clear endorsement in the comments, while others question the demonstrated knot's suitability for braided line. The claim to greatness hasn't ended the discussion.
"Fisherman are OBSESSED with this one knot" and "Almost everyone does this wrong" completed the week's new uploads. Across the archive, though, "Your Favorite Knot Is Costing You Fish" carries the strongest daily momentum, followed by "The correct way to spool a baitcaster". Both are several months old.
The channel added about 1.6 million views over the week while its subscriber count stayed unchanged. Daily viewing is modestly above its usual level. Among nearby outdoors channels, Harry's Farm is also drawing above-usual daily views, while North Star Fishing is running below its normal rate. Fishing Explained's dependable draw remains the tiny connection between line and tackle.
