Best Knots for Fluorocarban

[maclennanchris]

Just likethe title says. Want to start making my own leaders. Have some 40 lbs Fluoro, and was wondering what are some of the best holding knots for this material. Gonna be using em for jack and some walleye fishing this summer......

buy some crimpers and some titanuim holders and crimp them onto it.. it holds the best. other then that try a clinch knot lol

I just bought roll of 60lb flouro line yesterday for stelthy pike leader. I tied an improved clinch not. All I had to use was use four wraps around the line before I looped the line and pulled the knot tight. I pulled as hard as I could with the knot and the knot didn't break or slip free. :happy0034:

I used to tie mine but went to crimping them Its easier

How about using Perfection Loop? I know some people use the surgeon's loop but it never lines up straight.

Crimp sleeves for the heavy fluoro :)

The surgeons knot is one of the best. http://www.animatedknots.com/surgeonsjoin/index.php?Categ=fishing&LogoImage=LogoGrog.jpg&Website=www.animatedknots.com
