Whats the best knot for Spiderline?

[Mr. Sandman]

Well, I have loaded a few spools with this stuff now. What is the best knot to use to attach to a swivel? If you use a improved clich it kinda holds but the coating peels off the line. Any suggestions?

Palomar, no doubt about it. I've tied this in my thinnest mono, my thickest mono, fireline, and spiderwire. It's by far the best knot I have ever used.

Here are the directions.

Double your line and pass it through the barrel swivel eye. Grab the loop and tie an overhand knot over the eye. Slip the swivel through the loop and tighten down.

Easy knot to tie. Nearly, if not 100% line strength.

just tried it. Excellent knot. Funny, I have never used it before. I like it! Clean, small and easy. thanks

palomar knots are the only knots i trust with attaching braid or fusion lines to swivels...with mono i'll tie either palomars or improved clinches...

I use spiderwire not spiderline, but always a uni knot. I don't need glue and I've not lost a fish due to a knot failure, usually it's just me not paying attention to rocks and abrasion. Typically thou it's the 30# fluorcarbon leader that goes first and again due to fraying due to rocks.
