Location: Manitowish Waters WI | Uni is the best one I have found. Hasn't failed me yet. I have spent some time in the Gulf bottom fishing for grouper and it's all the guides tie. |

| I like the GT knot (aka the Sebile knot) personally. It's a bit more of a chore than the uni to uni, but it works really well as long as your fluoro is at least the same poundage as your braid. You need the diameter of the fluoro to be considerably larger than the braid or it doesn't hold, but since it's so much thicker anyways you can just use equal strength lines. |

| Anyone use a Albright knot? I've been practicing this one with a Bimini Twist. Seems like a stong connection. |

| A modified Albright works very well.

Location: Milwaukee, WI | I like the uni to uni simply because i know I am tying it properly. I have no doubt that the modified albright is a stronger knot, its just that I am not 100% certain that I am tying it correctly.
And most knots, tied wrong, are useless.
