Default Flyline/Leader Connection Question

Skip Summer wrote:

Planning on using some mono to connect flyline
to leader, using a nail knot. What pound test
mono should I use? 4 weight flyline.
This rod will be used for bluegills.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I use store bought "continuous taper" leaders, 7.5' 3X.
Depending on the brand the thick end is between .019 and
..021, which translates to like 20lb. mono. The tipppet
end is .008, of course, about a 4 or 5lb test.
