Of course a few you guy will likely chime in with Palomar being your favorite. Not that I'm against that.

Looks like I've got another knot to learn. The fish n fool knot was good, but I didn't think that it deserved a name like that. The guy just also went all over the internet to (brag?).

 

I'm looking forward to seeing the line to line knot wars. I only know how to tie uni to uni, but there has to be a knot with better strength and lower profile.

Some good stuff there.I've always been partial to the Palomar, simply because it's so easy to tie.

That would be the Modified Albright knot. Although it won over the uni to uni, It looks a bit finicky to tie, http://www.fishingcl...wars-episode-13

 

 

Not sure if it is a lower profile knot compared to the uni to uni. They look about the same to me.

 

 

I wonder how the knot strength compares when using lines of differing physical diameters like say 80 lb braid to 80 lb flouro. I researched it further and found that because of the line diameter differences using heavy lines fishermen are first tying a bimini knot http://www.wonderhow...ng-knot-348148/ then the modified albright
