What's the easiest knot to make to connect braid to a mono or fluro leader?

Probably a double uni knot. Google Wired2fish.

Prolly the double uni. But the FG knot is suppose to be smaller and nicer.

I have heard that but I have never used it, have you? When tying my tippet to my leader I always use the double loop system but we are tying FC to FC. FC is different than braid.

What Saw says. Uni works for me because for the life of me I can not tie the FG.

Albright, Alberto, Uni to Uni, FG, Surgeon's knot. Hemihappy is correct, Google or Youtube some of these and find one that you like. They all work if tied correctly. The FG has the smallest profile, so if you plan on pulling the knot through your rod guides, this would be a good one to know. I generally use the Albright or the Alberto. Easy to tie and strong for joining braid to mono or fluoro.

the uni knot is simple and strong the only minor change I make isif I am tying a mono/flouro leader to braid I make five wraps on the mono/flouro and six wraps onthe braid because braid will slip

The double uni - but as has been mentioned if using on braid use 6 wraps on braid.
