I tend to tie the Cinch Knot most often because it's the easiest to tie with my knot-tying tool. If you pay attention though... the cinch knot is the basis for many other knots.
I like to use the Palomar Knot when I'm using heavier line and am going for large fish... mainly for the strength of the knot. I've lost some 15+ pound fish because I've had knots either slip out on me or break on me. Haven't lost one since using the Palomar.
I just gotta figure out how to tie them knots with the loops for my crankbaits.
