Re: Which knot - braid to shock
If I'm tying at home, I take the time and do a short bimini loop (12-18" long) in the braid and then use a yucatan knot to connect the leader.
If I'm retying on the boat, it depends on the seas. I prefer to do a spider hitch then a yucatan again. If things are rocking, I use an alberto knot.
