Typical useAttaching a fishing line to a hook or swivel

The Trilene knot /ˈtraɪliːn/ is a multipurpose fishing knot that can be used for attaching monofilament line to hooks, swivels and lures. It resists slippage and failures.[1] The knot was apparently in use at least as early as 1975 when it was included in Tom McNally's Complete Book of Fishermen's Knots as the "double-looped clinch knot".[2] However, professional anglers Jimmy Houston and Ricky Green would later claim that they invented the knot in the late 1970s while experimenting during promotional events for Trilene, a fishing line manufacturer. Both men favored the idea of naming the knot after themselves, though Trilene ultimately applied its own name instead.[3] It is unclear whether Houston, Green or Trilene were aware of the knot's earlier invention or its prior inclusion in McNally's book.
