my main line in 14lb mono... i've spooled about half the reel (100+ yds) and now i want to add 40lb braid to it.. what's the best knot to join these 2 lines?
@Unplugged704 Do a double unit knot if you are not using it as a leader. Double Unit is much stronger, but it's more thicker and not good for casting.
To be honest it seems to work up to any size line and braid, I have used it for wreck fishing with 30lb braid and 50lb leader, you may need to add or take away the amount of turns though
Excellent demo. This is also called the "Alberto's Knot". You must make sure none of the loops overlap when pulling tight or else you should retie it.
will this work to tie mono to braid .......good and easy knot
cheers

nice knot, just read a mag that suggested bringing the tag end through the loop twice ... probablly wouldn't slip anyway

brilliant knot for lure fishing with braid --> monoleader. Leaves a small knot especially useful on modern rods with small lowrider style guides.
This though is a variation of the albright.
in my opinion, even stronger and less likely to fail, which isn't a common trait in albrights in my experience anyway.
