the fisherman has a good article on knots this weeks edition. It Basicly says learn a couple of knots very well, use plenty of spit to lube the knot, and make sure you tighten the knot with the spit, it acts as a lube. They say that the Triline knot is the best, I believe that this is the same as the improved clinch knot. What ever I beleive that the polymar knot is very strong easy to tie and very strong. I have started to tie the triline knot and it works very good. I made a little jig to test the knot strenghts. I thbink that poorly made knotsaccount for more lost fish than anything else.
