another contribution to the debate on best braid to leader knot. It looks the goods cos there is no one point where braid loops around leader. this is why the loop to leader systems always fail I'm referring to the post by Jogholio about half way down- a knot from Varivas http://www.fishraider.com.au/Invision/index.php?showtopic=28248

Been useing slim beauty alot these days easy as to tye and never seems to break at the knot. currently useing it with 4lb floro and 2lbfireline ,it amazes me how much you can pull on 2lb crystal fireline must break at 3.5kg.
You know, I always wondered: most of us have got our preferences for rods, reels, etc., but if you visit most websites there is always the same question regarding the dreaded leader to line knot. There has to be more variations on this than anything else discussed. We have the ABT and the bream guys out there advising us of all their gear but I can't remember seeing any info' on the knots they use. Might give Mr. Morgan a buzz, or have I missed something?
