Look up the Eugene Bend Knot. It makes a 'pop' when you tie it correctly, and otherwise it breaks. I've never had a knot fail with fluorocarbon using that not. It's been the only one I've used with fluorocarbon since. I use 8 lb on spinning reels with Blakemore's Reel Magic sprayed on it. Baitcasting I use 12 -15. I would use bigger for flipping but braid is just cheaper.

Do you use any kind of conditioner on casting gear? Thanks for the info. What brand fluorocarbon do you use?
