Best Knot For Braid

Uni knot....I would put it up an other knot out there. With any type of line.

The Uni Knot only retains about 75%-80% line strength. The Trilene and Palomar both keep 100%.

Does this mean it won't work great. No, it just means it's not techincally as strong as the Palomar or Trilene.

uh, it ***** to loop a line around 2 or 3 treble hooks and the bill of a crankbait for one?

Everyone is entitled to their opinion......I have seen several knot tests done on The World Fishing Network (Bass Edge for one) and all have said that the Palomar is the strongest....so that is what I use and always have. I'm sure the others work fine, but losing up to 25% of the line/knot strength doesn't sound good to me!!!!!

Ok I just thought there was an action issue I wasn't aware of. It's really not bad to do and it's worth it since the knot is so good. JMO
