My go to has been the Albright. Its worked very well for me. I enjoy learning new knots and have been working on the fg knot. Its not too easy to tie, for me at least, but its 100% at absolutely the tiniest Braid to fluoro/mono connection. Plenty o tutorials on YouTube. Check it out. Mike

Albright all the way. Long strong and slim and casts through guides well if need be. Can tie in under 30 seconds.

Yes seems to be the same know. The John Collins apparently only uses 5 wraps making it even more compact.

Hey - Thanks to all you guys for the suggestions.
I have been watching Youtube Knot tying videos and following the tying links on all of these and figure I better learn at least 2 of these really well.

All good advice. I really appreciate it.

Nothing but Bob Sands for me now. Too many failures on the double uni when going from braid to fluoro (braid to mono seemed to always be ok with the double uni though).
