Flurocarbon to Braided

[LucG]

I'm using 10 lbs braided line and was wondering what would be the best knot to use to attach a 6 lbs flurocarbon leader.

 

Thanks

I use double uni to for my fluro leaders. Same set up too, 10 lb test w/6 lb leader.

 

It's quick, and stong. Never failed me.

Double uni with a dab of dollar store superglue for insurance.

I use a swivel...the flouro can't stand much rotation.

I don't use a leader, I'm a man.

Just kidding I use what I believe is called a Surgeon's knot.

Triple Surgeons knot quick and easy.

Back to back UNI knot here too.

Anyone here have experience with the albright knot vs double uni when attaching smaller diameter braid to larger diameter mono leader? I ask because most fishing sites I've checked recommend the Albright.

The surgeon knot is very quick, I love it, but will it hold just as well as the double uni?

When I attach mono to power pro, I use the albright knot.

I use the triple surgeons knot for my shock leader to braid, fishing for carp. I've landed 30's with the knot.

Double cinch clasp tie works well. Just remember the second loose slip must be pulled east to west,(right to left).

With the smaller diameter lines the uni to uni is one of the best. I have been using the Duncan Loop on the braid end to a Perfection loop on the fluoro end and then join them loop to loop. Haven't broken it yet and it spreads the bulk of the knot over 3 sections making them smaller and flow through the guides easier. Best part is when you re-tie because your leader gets short all you have to do is the Perfection loop which takes 3 seconds!

Double uni for me - so far so good! Wish I had bothered with a leader Monday night...snagged up on the upper niagara drifting and chewed off atleast 50yards of power pro before i could get my spool locked enough to snap it off :S The uni held up nice after that - snapped the 15lb fluoro leader well before the knot.

+1 for the Albright, especially for stiffer flouro 15lb.+

Takes a small amount of practice to get it right but it's just as strong as the Uni that's alot easier to tie.
