What is the best knot to attach a fluorocarbon (flour!!) leader to braided line. No pancake jokes please.

I like the uni to Uni or the fg knot but it’s takes some practice.

This is the best knot to use. It can be used for many things including tying on hooks.

I agree Mike. Those are the main go to knots for line to line. Double Uni or FG.

Albright is a very good knot and is fairly easy to tie

The FG knot takes a little learning to tie but is worth the effort as it is the thinnest knot you can tie. The knot goes thru the rod guides and you do not even notice it. It is also a very, very strong knot!

I generally use the Albright or a blood knot, but I've been trying out the FG knot which I think I like best, but I can't tie it in the dark yet.

I like the Allbright because it is strong, easy, and creates a tight (small) knot.
