Same here, Mike.

Main reason I haven't snelled much is that I like to re-tie a lot (usually after every fish), and the snell is more of a pain to cut and un-do from the hook, then re-tie. I believe that I can remove and re-tie a Palomar much quicker. Line stays in the water more often, and I trust that knot with everything except Trilene XT.
