snell vs palomar

[smac]

What about trebles when live lining pogies or scup? Still a snell to the treble hook (if you use the treble)?

I was taught my my father to use the clinch many moons ago and havent used anything else except a loop knot for teasers and dropper loop.

I go with an improved clinch. I use Palomar for main line (braid) to swivel in all cases but have had trouble with the Palomar in lb over 30. My usual leader is 40LB Ande mono, or sometimes flouro. I use the improved clinch on my breakaways when plugging as well. Main reasons for not using a snell is I have no practice with it, and I use straight eye hooks for eels.

With a lot of you saying the Palomar on everything, maybe I should go try it again and tie up a few leaders.
