Jigging: uni or that jm one with all the half hitches and to a swivel, no exceptions.

Popping: uni, but some guys use a crimp or a two-turn thingy I can't remember the name for GT, because heavy lines suck for uni knots.

Trolling, not trawling is that thing with nets: uni to BB Richter snap clip.

Uni for pretty much

Uni for pretty much everything. Never fish heavier than 100lb leader but if I do up north popping I generally use twisted leaders which are crimped to an Owner heavy duty swivel, then attached to an Owner split ring, then to my popper/stickbait.

1/Jigging have alwaysed used full blood Knot.

Stand corected with the trolling lol also full blood Knot.

With poppers have always used twistys with crimp nice and easy.

But now using PR Knot to 200pnd leader and was wondering what peoples preferances would be.
