For those who like Power Pro and use it regularly....what is your favorite knot?
(I don't want discuss the overall merits or shortcomings of the line, I just want to hear from those who use it as their primary line.)
Thanks - Joe

I like to use a bimini, and then albright a 15 inchpeice of 40 or 50# to the double line.Then you can build your leader off that.

I use a palomar knot for tying on terminal tackle. I usually do not tie a leader directly to the power pro but when I do I use a Albright knot. I usually wrap the braid around the mono loop at least 12 time. I cut the mono real close to the braid and tab it with some hot stuff super t glue.

That's sounds good....I need something I can tie on a sandbar in the dark....
The bimini..... I admire people who can tie that knot...I know that it is a great knot - Sosin really liked it in his manual.
I tried to learn that knot one winter evening in my boiler room...I got close, but I could have used another hand and knee:smash:
Thanks - Joe

A man after my own heart. That's why I also suggest a Palomar to a barrel swivel, and 3-4' of mono to the snap or lure.

Don't know about Power Pro, but I've been using a Uni knot on Spiderwire since it came out and now the stealth version, knots don't fail and no glue needed to set them up. It's also an easy knot to.
