    Re: Best Knot For Fluorocarbon?

Anyone know where this was? Anyway, when you set the hook hard enough you will quickly learn that your typical knots arent the same on flouro. San diego is good as well.
    Eugene Bend.......I mentioned it when I began the thread. The knot was in Bassmaster mag, and Gary Klein said Shaw Grigsby told him to use it with fluorocarbon. I've been using it, but wanted input from anglers on fishin.com about what knots they tie. It also said Gary Klein had never used the knot, so his failure rate could not be recorded.......
