I use palomar. Make sure and leave a little extra tag end because it will cinch down a little more after you snug it when tying the knot.

I use a palomar, but it has a lot to do with the brand of line your using. This is because some lines are "rounder" than others. The only time I've had a palomar pull through was on a brand that has a "flatter" build.

the double palomar helps prevent the knot from slipping. just put the line through the eye twice before finishing the knot. works great!

Double improved clinch has never failed me. 3-4 twists and good to go.
