Super User J Francho Posted November 7, 2014 Super User Posted November 7, 2014 If your mainline is crimped, retie. You failed. I know that sounds mean, but it's the absolute truth. Quote

ksboy Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 I love the palomar knot for most but there are applications where it just doesn't work as well as others. I hardly ever use a clinch just because of what J.Franco said above about pulling on the line instead of the tag end. I recently started using a loop knot for some crankbaits and swimbaits. I like that one in certain situations. Getting on the lake and fishing will help you resolve which knots are better for you. I hope all your fishing days are joyful and blessed. Some guys think fishing is about catching fish. 1 Quote
