      I always tie a figure of 8 loop on the end of my braid, and put a small clip on. Then I can just clip on my pre tied rub leaders.

        Phil, less of the answering questions and get my fish updated on the table

        So literally using a length of mono like a body of a rig with the lure at the end? Got some braid to load up before this weeks trip out!

          lol what did I miss. I'll have a look now,

          Yeah that's more or less the idea, a lot of people use the Albright Knot but I always found using a clip or even a swivel was a lot stronger.

            You missed my opening salvo in the lure challenge is what you missed lol

            Yeah I have been playing about with the Albright knot but its a bit of a pain... think your loop and clip option sounds much better.

              Reverse allbright or yucatan knot, for me. I would be careful if using a clip or ring especially if fishing at night or if your inclined to look at any passing totty, you could wind this in to the tip eye and wreck the insert.

                        I like this GT knot, Easy to tie and very small.

                        The STRONGEST & SMALLEST braid to leader knot ever created. (POV detailed explaination.) - YouTube
