A little know fact...
Most tackle shops have (short spools) of spectra in various Lb Test up on the shelves. They will sell you these spools cheap and you can do a triple surgeon end loop - a cats paw - and another triple surgeon to make a strong connection with other short spools. (Its basically a wind on connection with spectra to spectra)
There are other knots that will work as well.
I've tied it for a few people when they were on a budget.
