Rapala knot?
#5
[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2][#002850]When connecting to a lure that is designed for lots of movement I always tie a Duolock or Fast-Lock snap onto the end of my leader. Then I can easily and quickly change out lures without having to re-tie. Also, that keeps wear and tear from occurring where the knot would have been if you were tying directly onto the lure. The drawbacks for using snaps are minimal but worth it to me. One of the drawbacks is that it might be a tad bit less “natural” looking. But you can use any good knot you depend on to tie to the snap. I also believe that the metal snap allows more lure movement than line does.

Sorry to not directly answer your question about which knot to use, but I just wanted to share this idea with yall.[/#002850][/size][/font]
