I use the SDJ because it was the first knot that I had been shown and it is easy to tie even in the dark. I have seen some sights that rate knots by their strengths and it usually comes in a close 2nd.

SDJ for most things on fluoro, but sometimes use the improved clinch for lighter lures. Haven't noticed a difference in line breakage between the two.

Doubled Uni knot is great and it's very strong. I still use a Paloma's for my spinning rods without problem bc the drag does all the work and the Palomar is great with dropshot.
Doubled uni is the same as a uni except you double the line up. the doubled uni is a line to lure knot, (not to be confused with a uni to uni splice)

Trilene knot on my copolymer lines, Shark knot fluorocarbon palomar on braid.
Shark knot is one I learned from a video from mark zona. Easy to tie and I have never had one break at the knot.

I use a Palomar or fishing fool knot if im tying to someting small like a swivel for a C-rig or tx.rig or drop shot hook. Double SanDiego Jam for jigs and swim batis. Alberto knot for joining two lines together, braid to a leader. Double Uni when joining backing line on my reel to the main line.
