Looking to expand my knowledge on knots with fluoro and was wondering how you guys are tying fluoro to hook on your heavier outfits?

Been tying this one for a couple of years. Phenomenal knot!

Snell knot to a heavy duty flipping hook.

I've also been using this knot for the past two seasons.
The only cranks I lost came at the expense of toothy critters.
Never had a break off with this knot. Touch wood.
I started using it with 17lb mono also.
I have been throwing heavy 1OZ Megabass I-slides and I-Jacks.
Need a trustworthy knot for those expensive lures ... so far, so good.

San Diego Jam Knot....

It is easy to tie - retains full line strength and works for both small and large dia. lines (just adjust your wraps)
