New Nanifil Line
Posted: Tue Jan 10, 2012 2:52 am
Aloha Larry,
I fish primarily for juvenile Giant Trevally (GT) from 1-5 pounds normally. I am thinking of using the new Nanofil Line by Berkeley, and want to know which line-to-line knot you would recommend. I plan to also tie a 3-4-foot fluorocarbon leader in front. My concern is that this new line is very slippery and GTs have a habit of breaking normal knots. I have had success with the uni-to-uni knot, when connecting mono to my PowerPro backing line. As you know, even a 2-pound GT places a lot of strain on light tackle. Your advice is gratefully appreciated. Aloha!
