uni to uni knot for attaching flouro leader to braid...anything else will slip on the slick braid in my experience.

+1 for me too. I have broke the leader and the braid but not at the knot.


Set the hook first, ask questions later!!!

Previously, I used the uni-uni. Then, I discovered the double albright (same as Albright Special or Albright/Alberto?), which I like better because it is much more streamlined, and it casts/pitches through the rod eyelets with no problem. ALso, it's easier and quicker to tie.

Need to improve my LMB fishing, running out of time.

I found this link to be of use when trying out different knots. Animation really helps.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know when to go fishing.

I forget the name of the knot I use. It's a double square on the braid and then an albright on the mono/fluoro line. Goes through the guides nicely.
