Danno, there is a few knots
Danno,
there is a few knots out there that you can tie, your double or bimini in my books is something you always tie with braid as it gives you more strength in your join knot.
if u jump on google and look up a few differant braid to leader knots it would have a few. for casting lures, plastics and poppers i use a slim beauty or a GT knot as i have never had one of these knots fail, and when casting they dont get caught on the eyes of your rod!
if im live baiting or bottom fishing u usually use a albright or double uni knot. I find the double uni knot alot better than the albright, as i have had albrights snapp on the hook up where as the double uni never breaks!
