    Default attaching Flourocarbon to superline

    Herbie,

    Is a double Uni good for this? I want to eliminate the barrel swivel between the flouro (80lb) and the Invisibraid (80lb). My problem is that when I cinch down the two opposing Uniknots, the superfine winds up sliding into the flouro knot. In other words, the flouro "swallows" the uniknot on the super-line and cinches over the line. And then I say a few bad words.

    Does spit all over my hands and dripping on to the couch count as wet enough?

    See ya soon...I'm losing my mind with the anticipation, but the guys are keeping me in check. I got a litle sloppy/lazy last year, but I'm going to tighten things up. When you see the big girls follow tell em I'm comin' and I'm bringing war with me...
