I have always used straight braid or straight flouro. Considering to move to braid to flouro leader.
I didnt want to highjack the other thread.

One which knots do you guys use to tie the leader to the braid? I was told by Tommy Martin to tie the double uni. Is that a good strong knot?
Do you have any problem in very heavy cover?
If I use 65lb braid and a 25lb lb louro leader will it handle handle cover like flipping button willows or heavy grass?

Thanks for any help.

I would use mono.

Improved/crazy Alberto--quicker and easier for me to tie than the double uni.

50# Braid for heavy cover
Crazy Alberto knot
25-30# mono for heavy cover
Canoe man loop knot

This!

Thinnest, strongest, FG knot.

I've been using the double uni for 20lb braid to 8-10lb fluoro on spinning rods. It passes through the guides well and hasn't failed on a fish on me yet. I haven't used it in the manner you're describing though.

Barrel swivel

Crazy Alberto knot

Tied my first Alberto last wk. Worked great, and fairly easy to learn.

Braid to flouro/mono is all I use. Alberto is a good easy knot to tie. I use a dab of knotsense just for a little extra protection of the knot. Every one of my reels is spooled with 50lb maxcuatro with the exception of my jerkbait and crankbait setups. 20lb maxcuatro for those.

I use the Alberto knot. Never heard of the crazy alberto so I'm gonna have to look that one up

Regular Alberto. It�s stronger than the other knots in the chain. I�ve very, very seldom broken at the Alberto. Usually it�s at or just above the hook knot.

Alberto for me.. easy to tie and really strong.
