try a palomar knot to tie the line to lures. for connecting it to your main line,try a double uni-knot.

Whatever kind of knot you like best. Just super glue it though because braid slips sometimes, even with palomars. No knot is foolproof.

I use a uni knot or polymer knot for everything. If you go through the eye of your hook or around the spool 2x it will greatly improve the strength of your knot... rarely have a knot fail when go through 2x.

I use an Improved Clinch Knot for just about everything.

Is it true that with braid an improved clinch cuts into itself?

I did not know this.I use the Improved Clinch Knot with Power Pro and I haven't had any problems so far.I just looked up the Palomer Knot on Google.It looks like a very easy knot to tie.Is that the best knot for braid?

"Quick Knot" its the best for braid. it "clicks" when the knot cinches up no glue needed and its so easy to do.
