Charlie Hicklin reply :
i use the shark knot for almost everything but braid.... i haven't found a stronger knot that i can tie... just google "mark zona shark knot" in videos if you don't know how to tie it... i watched his video a couple times and have been using it ever since...
Ozark_Basser reply :
I think the albright knot is the coolest knot for some reason. Second would be the double uni connection knot with three tag ends. I think it's a lot like the San Diego jam knot. It's hard to beat the palomar though. Probably one of the strongest knots out there and yet such a simple knot.
BasshunterJGH reply :
Mono/fluoro: 6 turn San Diego jam
Braid: Palomar
Connection: Blood knot
I use the San Diego jam the most. Works for braid, too.
Bluebasser86 reply :
Palomar for all around knot. I use a SDJ for fluoro most of the time.

Palomar for everything, except for Braid to Leader and for that I like the Modified Albright.
Fisher-O-men reply :
Was palomar, now a Uni convert. Why all these San Diego knots? Palomar Mtn is in SD county. I know the SD Jam originated on the offshore boats.

Same here.
Acwood04 reply :
I use the pitzen knot(just like the san Diego jam) for everything including braid. I like the Palomar as well for drop shots. I also use the Albright special for attaching flouro to braid...

same for me
Choporoz reply :
Frayed.
No 'favorites'. I probably use Improved Clinch the most. But, I still need Palomar, Albright, Anchor Hitch and others.
annexation reply :
I always use the Palomar for braid - for those times when I want to conserve some of my leader with a smaller tag, I like the improved clinch.
However, after browsing this thread I'm considering giving the San Diego jam a shot.
Just learned the Alberto knot for joining braid and fluorocarbon and I've had much more success with that one than the uni-to-uni, so it's become my favorite line-to-line knot.
thehooligan reply :
improved clinch for mono
palomar for braid
double uni for leaders
wytstang reply :
Palomar knot 99% of the time
Uni for open eye type lures (spinners, buzzbaits)
