This is my personal "preferred Knot"

There are very few that use this self developed knot. Both I and a friend of mine kind of think that we both developed it about 30 years ago! You won't see it anywhere that I know of…but you will see one that is very similar to it. I had a lot of fun over the years at the sport shows playing mind games with all the line reps with this knot. I have never seen a knot that tests out any stronger at the breaking scales!

It's a simple one to use (most of the time). I call it the "double improved clinch knot"! It is exactly what it is named. Just Double your line and make a complete "clinch not" (http://camalott.com/~striper/bait/knots/knots.html). The trick is not to cut your self sort on the small end of your knot and I always add a "little spit" to my knot so that it will not rub to hard when you pull it tight! The same knots works really well with all those new spider type of woven lines.

It is the "only knot" that I have used for tying my jigs and swivels for the past 30 years! It works great on monofilaments line up to 60 lb test.
