tie a uni knot in the heavier line then a san diego jam knot in the lighter line..best knot you can get. wrap it anywhere from 3-10x depending on line diameter and works great with braid to braid, mono to mono, or braid to mono
i used a knot that was similar to this earlier today for the first time..called the stren knot..just got back from losing a monster tarpon i hooked right from the beach because my leader is kind of thick to tie to braid..anyone know any good knots for braid to a heavier (200lb test) leader
G'day mate, I tried casting with a shock leader and the knot I used between the shock leader and main braid line was hitting/touching the guides and significantly affected my distance. How do i tackle this problem?

Braid can be tricky - I only use this knot for mono to mono.

Oh yes, definitely moisten it with a bit of spit, I just wanted to keep it in front of the camera for the demonstration.
