Its a given not to use fluoro for topwater or a cork. You dont need to use any special knots just be sure to wet them good and tighten them slowly. I have been using fluoro for the past two years and have never had any of the issues of breakoffs. Fluoro will break if it gets kinked or folded no matter the lb test. Also if your using it on a spin rod go with the lightest lb test your comfortable with and do not over fill the spool. I also wouldnt use a fluoro leader on topwater bc u dont want the line sinking ahead of your bait.
