Been using a palomar but it seems to no be the way to go. www.TuffSkinz.net www.basscat.com �It�s all in your head. It doesn�t matter if your 6 or 60. You can participate in this sport."-Rick Clunn

Just make sure that you wet the knot and make it "flip" over when you pull it tight. AND DEFINITELY DO NOT PULL THE TWO ENDS APART to tighten!

I use the double improved clinch on heavier lines, 17-25lb fluoro, and the regular for smaller lines.

I don't know if the double knot I tie has a name but Alton Jones ties a knot on Youtube that is similar to the SanDiego Jam knot. I use that knot with a double line. Very strong knot.
