Sorry guy, missed your post.

Usually just a couple of 'improved clinch' knots. For building leaders I'll connect the sections with the Surgon/water knot.

Another school of thought suggests the trailing hook be tied with a knot that leaves it 'swing' in an open loop. Not sure if this really helps ... assuming you're using a fairly light 'test leader,' but it does once you get to 8-10# or over.
