A line knot tying apparatus and method of use is disclosed that assists in joining first and second line free end portions. The knot tying apparatus includes a housing with an aperture therethrough that is slidably engaged to an extension element wherein an element biases the extension to a closed state that can be manually pushed into an open state. Also a helical coil with continuously increasing pitch line distance is attached to the housing. Operationally the first and second line free end portions each have a manual removable slidable engagement to the helical coil with opposing free ends that are wound in a plurality of loops about the opposing line then being secured by the extension element in the closed state. Then manually pulling the non free end line portions apart from one another to form the knot, further releasing the opposing line free ends from the extension element.

An offshore fishing apparatus aligns properly, is light weight, and is consistently adjustable by the user to their desired tension for smooth release of their fishing line when a fish strikes or when any force overcomes the applied tension placed on the fishing line release arm. The device further includes a proximal beveled entry and exit including a pivot ball with an aperture, through which a kite or connection line is run through. The pivot ball allows the device to pivot in the direction the fishing line moves. The device is advantageously light weight, in part due to lightweight materials used to construct the device without reducing the device's performance.

A fishing line braided knotting device for attaching one fishing line to another includes a base to which a pair of posts is attached, with each post extending perpendicularly from the base proximate to one of its opposed ends. The post comprises lower and upper portions, with the latter being circumferentially smaller than the former. A pair of fasteners is attached singly to the posts. A first fishing line can be looped around the upper portions so that two loop sections of the first fishing line extend substantially in parallel between the posts. One of the fasteners attaches to the first fishing line and a first line tag to secure them in position. A second one of the fasteners selectively attaches to a second fishing line leaving a second line tag available to be positioned around the two loop sections to knot the fishing lines together.

An apparatus for tying knots can include a body defined by a length along a longitudinal axis of the body and by an outer surface that extends around the longitudinal axis of the body from a first end of the body to a second end of the body. A trench in the body can extend from the outer surface of the body toward the longitudinal axis for the length of the body. A channel can extend for the length of the body and is exposed at the first and second ends of the body. A neck can be between the trench and the channel, the neck can be configured to contain first and second flexible lines extending in the channel extending from the first end of the body to the second end of the body and a line guide can be on the outer surface of the body configured to hold the first or second line at an oblique angle relative to a direction of the longitudinal axis.
