Are you talking about the made up wind on leaders that have a dacron loop ??
if so Tie a bimini and do a catspaw onto the wind on.

yeah, Sam is talking about
yeah, Sam is talking about the windon's you buy with the loop in them already, but if you were referring to leader -> mainline connection in the smallest possible catch free way, then yeah, I believe bimini to improved albright is one of the best ways....
