Default Another question

After receiving such a great response to my question on hand made
leaders I thought I'd ask another question: What knot do you use to tie
your fly to the leader? I have always used either an improved clinch or
a palomar knot, but it has been suggested that I use a turle knot or run
the line through the eye and tie a loop allowing the fly more natural
action.

Thanks in advance for all the responses!

Whst Forty said. Clinch knot, unimproved, five to seven turns, Been
working for me for more than 50 years.....if it ain't broke, I don't
fix it.
