    Surgeon's knot -- especially if the two lines you're tying together are different sizes.

    I've been using the seaguar knot this year, easy knot to tie like the surgeon. You'll find a lot of guys here use the uni to uni knot also.

    Uni to Uni is great for this. I use it all the time, it only breaks when I want it too (actually it usually breaks at the flouro-lure knot rather than the uni to uni joining of braid and flouro.
