I realized on the last outing that braided line is a total different animal than mono, this was my first time using braided line.
I don't know if I wasn't remembering the way the packaging said to tie the knot but I lost 3 good trout that day due to my knot tying. I grabbed my phone and googled knots for braided line and came across the palomar knot. It's so simple I had my doubts but, after landing the next fish and a while later getting hung up, I quickly gained allot of faith in this simple quick knot. I'm not sure if it works on mono but I like it for 15# spider wire.
