I use the uni or the palomar to connect the braid to my terminal tackle of choice..I have mastered the holding of the loops in a uni an I can do it with my eyes closed and I have been using it more and more..Most times while jigging I get at least the swivel end of the leader back.With 30 lb fireline and a 40 lb leader..In fact I will have some extra clips on hand to just retie the clip to the shortened leader..I have tried the breakaway as a quick link leader changer thing on top of the leader.I have since stopped as I felt perhaps there might be some loss of feel at the working end of my rod..
Most knots will tighten down on themselves..I will use some glue when I get fancy on the braid knots to keep this from happening..
I have read that it works well But i could not honestly tell ya it does.In my head more is better..So I do it..
