Palomar for everything that’s not a leader knot Alberto for leader to braid Trilene for times when a palomar isn’t possible. I hope I’m correct, because these really are the only ones needed.
Eat. Sleep. Fish.

Jam Knot for everything except Alberto for braid to leader Palomar doubled through hook eye when punching thick heavy mats. Braid only obviously.

No love for the overhand knot and granny knot I see. They have probably caught more fish than all the others put together!

Pitzen for moving baits, Double Pitzen for large or heavy baits Palomar for hooks and for my drop shot Alberto for line to leader. Double Uni works also and is easier to tie than the Alberto but the Alberto is a smaller knot when tied.

Mark Pack says Double San Diego Jam Knot for Flouro and hes much smarter than I am so that's what I use. Palomar for everything else.

Whatever you can tie consistently and relatively quickly.
I like doubled uni for line to hook/lure, also what I use for drop shot. crazy alberto for line to line
I did use a snell for a while for pitching/flipping but didn't see any benefit. I can tie a doubled uni quicker and more consistently
