Tying braid to mono/flourocarbon

Featured Replies

What knot do you all use?  I have always used a blood knot when splicing two pieces of line together but that knot doesn't seem to work too well when one of the pieces of line is braid.  The polymer line wants to slide right through it.  After re-tying the same knot 10 times last night, I started to think there had to be a better solution.

I've recently switched from using back-to-back Uni knots to using the Albright. Seems to be much more secure. However, regardless of which you choose, get a small bottle of "Zap-A-Gap" glue from a hobby shop. A light coating on your connection knot will go a long way in maintaining the integrity.
