On a premium Ball bearing snap swivel. Eliminate as much line twist as possible.

Snap swivel can detract from a lure as well as be bent straight by a fish pulling on it.

Maybe? But never had those problems with top notch snap swivels.

If they have a tip that is looped or bent it helps. I pinch the brass on cheaper type snap swivels so they can’t bend straight. Your lucky if never had one bent straight. Maybe not targeting large fish.

Trilene knot is a 95% knot improved clinch is a 50% knot polamer knot is a 95% knot. On a line test machine a 14# line will break a about 15.5# . With any knot you'll lose a little bit try the trilene or polamar knot. You be closer to the dead pull strength. Remember to wet the knot with saliva prior to cinching it down so it doesn't burn the monofilament or Flurocarbon.

I use the Palomar knot for tying a lot.

I do know I have a harder time getting Trilene to not slip ( the knot). I need to look and utilize Palomar

Palomar knot works for MOST all your needs.

It’s so simple to do. I just learned it and use it whenever I can. The only other knot I use is a uni/double uni. I grew up using only clinch for everything.

palomar and Uni/double Uni can’t go wrong there.
Yep it's either one or the other for me most all the time.

Have you tried wetting the knot with saliva I do both loops then five turns and back through then I wet it with saliva and pull tight
