A "uni-knot" will do as well as a nailknot.

Particularly the line to line section -- While it speaks of a double
uni-knot you need only tie a single one around your fly line with the
backing of course.

The double nail knot is 1/2 the dia. of a double Uni, this lets it slide
through guides much easier

OK...But my "line to backing knot" doesn't have to slide through the
guides often enough that I have to worry about it.

True enough, but when it does, you usually have one hell of a fish on
the line and you'd care! Believe me!
