whats the best floro carbon to swivel/lure knot? all this talk about floro carbon im going to it but was wondering if theres a better knot then a snell or trilene knot?

I really don't think you can beat the 'ol Palomar knot.... Easy and strong and double thick at eyelet interface.

Line welder. Hmm. The answer to shaky hands trying to tie tough knots. Anyone try it or will I be the first?

[Joe Mott]

it sure sounds like a great tool. did you notice it is only good for up to 12 lb mono or floro but heaver braided. please let us know how it works. ps im 60 and my eyes ant the same as they used to be either. sounds like a nice tool.

Just saw the total price. I guess I'll continue to tie knots by hand.

I use a simple knot thats easy to tie and don't think its ever failed me. Run your line through the eye twice , wrawp your main line like a traditional clinch knot, tag end back through both loops, wet and pull tight. Also this knot can be undone with your fingernail, handy for heavier mono's when you can't find your knife.

sounds good i have used the same knot but didnt go through the eye twice just once, thank you

Trilene knot real simple to use. Ive been using it for years very happy.

That is the same knot I was describing, very simple, even holds well for braid. Now I know a name for it, thanks Vtmopar.
