#15386, "Trilene knot, with superglue"
In response to In response to 0


  

          

I use the Trilene knot, which has a double loop through the hook eye. In a BASS WEST article some years back, their tests determined that the Trilene was slightly stronger and more consistent than the Palomar, so I've pretty much used it ever since.

As Mitch says, adding a drop of superglue is 'cheap insurance' -- I like that. However, while I had noticed some knot slippage without the glue on Berkley Fireline, I've noticed the PowerPro holds considerably better on its own, without the glue.
