Braid To Braid Connection Knot

[summers in kuwait]

For Knot to Knot connections, I have always used the alberto knot.

I have used this knot over the last 5-7 years and have never had any issues.
I mainly go 65 lb. braid to ~30-40 mono or fluoro.

I will say that if I tie it and it looks weird or off. I cut it and retie.

From videos I've seen in the past the same knot has a lot of different names, the important part is to have the same or more turns on the braid side, if mixing lines.

As someone who left the Uni to Uni for the Alberto knot on my leaders for a more streamlined knot in my guides, my gut is telling me uni/uni would be a good braid to braid connector. I always add a few turns whenever I'm going braid.

if you can tie a bimini twist, a loop to loop connection is a good bet for joining braid to braid

I always use double uni on braid-braid or braid-lighter fluoro. I usually only use the alberto with braid-40# or bigger because a double-uni knot just gets way too bulky at that point

If hollow core already on spool, just splice together using a daho needle, or buy hollow core and splice onto existing solid braid. One of the advantages of hollow core braid.

I didn't know you could do it with braid that small....

Guy who runs my spearfishing shop just showed me how to do it with the dyneema that holds the slip tip on my polespear. I was incredulous that it would chinese finger trap and hold quite so well, but it's kind of amazing.
