The only one I've tried is the double uni knot and it has worked for me every time

Albright special. It's easy and end up a perfect little barrel inline. Here's a video
 like the man says...if you're swimming in the ocean and get bitten by a shark, its not a shark attack. You're in THEIR neighborhood. If you're at home in your shower, turn around and a shark is in there with you...THAT'S a shark attack

Get yourself a little doohickey called a Tie-Fast at a fly tackle shop. This lets you overlap the tag ends, wrap one about 5 times around the other line, slip the end back up under the loops you just made, and tighten down. Repeat the process for the other line, cinch the two knots together, and you have a very low-profile knot. Got mine at BassPro.

Previously used the double uni (uni-uni)
Now, a big fan of the double albright(Albright Special)
Need to improve my LMB fishing, running out of time.

Uni-to-uni works great. One note in my experience, if the braid is very thin relative to the mono, it helps to double the braid first with a loop knot.
