    i think your talking about the clinch knot. i use the improved clinch knot. i wrap the line around about 8 times then go through the bottom loop then go back through the top loop then snug it all down. or you can do a google search for improved clinch knot. it all i ever use on mono, floro, or braid.

    Yep your right, I did a google and in fact I've been using the improved clinch knot. My Grandfather showed me this knot 35 yrs ago, I'm sure he told me the name but I forgot.
    So I guess any of the good knots will work, I was just wondering if braid needed another. Good to know a few different knots I guess.

    I use the uni-knot/blood knot, never had a problem in over 30yrs.

    I can only hope I have earned the freedom that has been given me.

    I have had clinch knots come loose on hard hook sets before I knew how tie a Palomar on braid while bass fishing. Never had one come loose since changing to Palomar.
