“Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them and you have their shoes.”
For years I used nothing but an improved clinch with a stopper knott on the tail.
But recently I started using a polomar and have great results with Mono and Braid.
Anyone use a loop knot?

A polomar is a very good knot, but when using braid I suggest putting a dab of super glue on the knot. Another good knot to use especially if you are in the weeds, is a knot to where you go in line doubled like a polomar, take the loop, pull enough through to wrap from top down and loop in at eye and cinch downward, only thing pull slow with mono so you don't burn the line. You only need about four twist.
