    That's a good question?
    I've used the uni to uni too but I'm never sure how many turns are necessary. I've always used 6 or so. Which side do you tighten up first? The Floro or the Power Pro?

    The power pro. I only use three to five wraps on the flouro/mono uni. When you tighten the PP first...don't crank it 100% tight, just enough to get the wraps all seated nicely. Once the two knots are pulled together then tighten the stuffing out of it. Pull all four pieces first...then drop the tag ends and pull again and trim.

    I use the Uni to Uni & Tim uses a Blood knot.
    When using different line diameters I double the braid. Example: tying #50 braid to #50 mono. Just double the braid & tie the Uni to Uni the same way, just be careful when cutting the ends.

    For lighter lines (8 to 40 pounds) I use a triple over hand knot. Very easy to tie when the boat is rocking and rolling...

    Got a couple of PM on this knot. A while back I made a video of this knot and the knot I use when I tie on my MirrOlures. Here is the link to the video...

    for the lighter lines, slim beauty, uni to uni, improved albright.....I am going to try the "squid knot" provided in a link up top. Captain Lee I like your style. When the heat is on........that is a good knot. Fast, and can be retied after a couple fish or every fish....in the dark I luv those blitz bite moments !!!!!!
