As others have said, I use the Polamar except for action type baits. I do not worry about how fast I can tie it. I am very careful to make sure the line through the eye and over the eye do not cross and snugs down tight. I wet everything before I close it down and pull the excess out with the tag and not my line to the hook. I have had this knot fail in only one situation. That is with old line.
