The two simplest and strongest line-to-snap, line-to-split ring, or
line-to-lure knots
for monofilament and fluorocarbon are the Palomar and the Trilene (also called the double-loop clinch knot) Tied correctly they both provide
knot strength
of around 95 percent of line break strength.
Is Palomar knot good for Mono?
The Palomar Knot is arguably the
strongest all-around knot
. Due to its use of a double line, it is as efficient at maintaining a high breaking strength as it is easy to tie. Furthermore, it is versatile and can be used for monofilament , fluorocarbon, and braided lines alike.
What is the
best knot
to tie fishing line to a reel?
The arbor knot is used for tying line to the reel and can be used for both baitcast or spinning reels. This knot is suggested for monofilament and fluorocarbon lines. This can be also used for braided superlines or unifilament if the spool is designed with a non-slip braid-ready spool.
Which is stronger Palomar or uni knot?
Since which knots you choose to tie is one of the few things under your control when fighting a fish, I’d definitely recommend going with the uni knot over the palomar knot. It’s 8% stronger, so just by choosing the uni knot you can increase the pulling strength of your setup by 8%.
Is a Palomar knot good for fluorocarbon?
It also works well with fluorocarbon fishing line Strong and easy to tie, the Palomar resists slipping and has retained 100 percent of the line’s original strength in Berkley Knot Wars testing.
Is the Trilene knot a good knot?
Uses: The Trilene Knot is a strong and reliable knot to join monofilament line to hooks, swivels and lures. It resists slippage and failures and is an excellent and stronger alternative to the Clinch Knot. Tying it: When trimming the tag end of the Trilene knot leave about an eighth of an inch for security.

What’s the strongest fishing knot?
The Palomar Knot is the strongest fishing knot in many situations. This knot only has 3 steps making it extremely powerful and very basic. Since there are not many twist and kinks in this knot it makes it extremely tough to break. It can be used on Braided line and Mono-filament.
What knot is best for fluorocarbon?
So, what is the best knot for fluorocarbon? Sunline recommends using the
tornado hh knot
We recommend this knot for fluorocarbon because the knot strength of the Tornado HH knot is nearly 100 % of straight strength. Meaning the knot has the same tensile strength as the line.
What fishing line is better mono or fluorocarbon?
Over the long term, fluorocarbon is extremely resistant to the elements as well, unlike monofilament Overtime, U.V. rays, rain and humidity, and extreme temperatures (both hot and cold) can cause monofilament to break down and lose strength. Fluorocarbon is much more resistant to these conditions over the long term.
