I haven't had luck with the palomar knot on braid as much as I like the knot! I use an improved cinch from my fly fishing which seems to be the one knot that has held lures on my line! Certainly, I need to pull that knot snug at a much slower rate when I tie it. I've even tried that Berkeley braid knot but have had no luck with it either as things just seem to slip off of it. Might have been my tying to blame though.

I just checked and my rigs are set up with 12# and 20# fireline which I think Westwood uses. I am looking forward to hitting Wabakimi in a week or so to try some of this out.
