Default Braid to mono knot?

So what knot does everyone use to tie leaders? I'm going to try a copolymer leader on my braid next time out.

Uni knot
Been using it for years. 100% confidence once you master it.

Uni is good as well but what I use fishing fresh and salt water, fishing light weight or heavy weight, works just as good ... is the "Albright Knot".

Alright, just tied my first double UNI and I am impressed! That is what I will be going with next time out.

I tried the albright knot and it it broke, Disclaimer: I may or may not have tied it correctly. I am going to go uni to uni and see how that works.

ive had good luck with the Nail Knot when ive had to join 2 lines together. Kind of a pain though, gotta carry a small straw to tie the knot.

I've used Albright knot for many years most all my spinning reels have 20 lb powerpro braid with some sort of liter depending what and how I'm fishing. Been great for me. Line has broken before the knot has.

They are all good I'm sure once you have tied them 1000 times. The best knot is the one you get comfortable using.
