[Kowen117]

Any ideas on the best floro leader let me know and any braid to floro knots please!!!! :-[

I like berkley's 100% pro grade fluoro and for a cheaper option I love the BPS fluoro.

as for knots, many will say uni-uni, it's an easy knot to tie but the knot that forms is too big for me.

I personally like the improved albright/alberto knot, the resulting knot is smaller and more streamline making it travel through the guides much better, though it is a TAD more complicated to tie.

My choice is the XPS Fluorocarbon and a uni-uni knot connection. About 95% of the fishing I do with the braid and fluorocarbon combination is with 30# braid and 20# fluorocarbon. When I tie the connection, I use 6 turns on both lines and cut the tag ends flush with the knot. Never a problem with knot failure or casting performance. I keep 7 rods rigged with that combo-two baitcasters and 5 spinning.

I like the Alberto's knot for combining the two.
