The improved clinch is deffenetly my 2nd favorite it's easy and fast!

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...

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. 

Mono/fluoro: 6 turn San Diego jam

Braid: Palomar

Connection: Blood knot

I use the San Diego jam the most. Works for braid, too.

Palomar for all around knot. I use a SDJ for fluoro most of the time.

Been using the Trilene knot for about 3 yrs, now. Never had a problem with it.

San Diego jam for a couple of years now.

Just started using the SDJ about 6 months ago (from suggestions on this forum) and haven't looked back.

Alberto for leaders, palomar for braid, improved clinch for mono/fluoro.

Fluoro to lure - trilene knot

 

Braid to lure - palomar knot

 

Braid to fluoro leader - alberto knot

Palomar for everything, except for Braid to Leader and for that I like the Modified Albright.

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.

Palomar and triple surgeon are 99% of knots i tie

I'm knot gonna get skunked next year.

Palomar for everything, except for Braid to Leader and for that I like the Modified Albright.

Same here.

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...
