Oh BTW , I'm fishing the canal where we snag the bottom a lot. This dictates the need for progressive strength in the knots. IF I fish from the beach where a snag is much less likely , I use a different knot stategy. There the leader gets much lighter and brings me into Blood knot territory for the leader knot with a Polamar at the lure , jig , eel hook etc. I very seldom use swivels or snaps anymore.
