Answer 2

unlose or untied, but if u pull on it and dosent move ur fine, are u lubricating it then tighning it, happens to me too

Answer 3

Link below shows the correct way ta' tie the Palomar ~ it's animated so it makes tyin' it real simplfied. Don't inderstand when you refer to the "loop" under the eye after tyin' it ie., there should be no loop. Seems ta' me your not cinchin' the completed knot down good enough, to the eye of the hook. When tied the correct way very seldom does the Palomar come loose/"unloose". Know the link will set ya' straight so give it a look see ;)...

Note: When tyin' the Palomar and or others knots I'll get help from Mother Natures lube and spit on the knot for a better cinch ;) Hope I didn't gross anyone out by puttin' that way ;)...

Answer 4

"unloose" = tight,   so whats the problem?

Answer 5

When you loop it through instead of just one time try 2 or 3 times it makes it tighter.
