Just a quick poll... Since switching to super lines, I don't retie as often. Became curious as to what others do...

learned the double line to the leader for cranks on rocks from Herbie … good trick that helps. key is to re-tie when you need to re-tie keeping an eye on your line as you fish.

Also use the double line to leader style on some of my rods, But in most cases retire every time I catch a fish . Unhooking, wrapped line through mouth/gill plate or even another hook has caused a weak spot . I don't take chances as fish are tough enough to catch.
