Palomar Knot

I still use a uni knot but I found that if I double the line with a bimini knot first its bullet proof.

Thanks guys! That's what I read on the internet. But I want to hear if from members of this board.

Bimini with the offshore knot.

If you have time, offshore swivel knot. For a quickie, nothing beats a centauri knot which is a knot every fisherman should learn in my opinion. The strongest next to a nail knot. This knot tests at 95%. While the uni tests at only 75% and a palamor knot only tests at 85%.

Preciate it guys!!

San diego jam knot. They use it for the long range tuna trips. If it holds upto 300lb yellowfins, should hold upto most fish.

Spider hitch to make a double line then uni to the swivel. Never had the knot fail (but I seem to break off plenty getting jammed in pilings and oyster bears).

Preciate it guys!! I see there are about 5 or 6 different knots yall have posted. But the polamer and the uni seem to be the most popular.

thats it, thanks for finding it, I think it will help some here. I have never seen it fail under any line test, braid, mono or fluro and with a little practice can be tied in seconds....tight lines
