I tell you what, I use 40 to 80lb mono on my larger reels, 65lb super braid on some, 12 lb super braid on my bass reel and my ultra light, and 20lb mono or hybrid on my inshore saltwater and heavy freshwater reels. I use a single knott to attach my terminal tackle or snap swivels to my line, the Trilene Knott. I've NEVER had a knott come un-done, and the knott retains 100% of the line tensile strength. How do I know for sure? I tested it with a scale in a controled enviroment. it's an east knott to do, and it's strong and reliable. [cool]
