Fairly new to jig fishing.(even tying my own now) What IYO is a good knot. I as assuming the knot effects the action of the jig.
May the Good Lord bless you with a bend in your rod.

Not smart or fast enough to fish with more than one at a time. I am tying palomar on mine now,but I have seen a loop knot on some.

I like the palomar. Fast, strong, and easy.

I like a Rapala knot. It is a strong loop knot. Holds the jig perfectly horizontal. Also will let you impart alot of action into the jig.

I actually use the uni-knot. I have experimented with the palomar and found the uni-knot is actually stronger. I also use a loop knot if fishing with multiple jigs.

I use a loop knot and nothing else. Fast and I've never had a problem with breaking.
