i'd be interested in your knot though, another one to practice,,

This is a pretty good piece on how to tie it: http://www.fintalk.com/fishing-knots...mono-knot.html

It's what I use to attach to just about everything these days if I'm not using a snap and need a loop. The loop itself instead of the knot breaks if I'm lazy enough to not retie all day. For real heavy leader (80+) I go to an improved clinch or a Homer Rhode.
