hey guys, what knot do you usualy use when tieing a leader to your main line, on the rig used for bootom fishing, or perch rig for winter ?

The blood knot works quite well for me.

I just gotta figure out how to do it in the dark.

fishinfool, The Blood Knot is used to join two lines of similar size, e.g., when joining sections of leader or tippet.

snowball, i edited the picture so you way wont work, i want my leader to be of smaller size

I would use try either the uni to uni or my favorite knot the Alberto ( variation of the albright knot) easy to tie and very strong

do a google search if you are interested in the Alberto knot .
