I have searched extensively but i still have the following questions on braid and leader knots:
1) When matching a leader to braid, should the thickness of the leader be twice the thickness of the braid diameter? Cite braid and leader thicknesses if possible please.
2) What braid to leader connections (Knots) should one use for light, medium and heavy tackle as I understand that certain knots have strength limitations for certain classes of tackle.
3) Braid to leader knot before or after the rod tip? Are there exceptions? What seems to be the consensus here on Sealine?
Answers to any of these questions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys.
