Thanks in advance for the help.

Use a braided loop (floating or sinking depending on your line type). This
kind of connection is much stronger than the nailknot.

I think that's both bad advice and misinformation. I've seen
braided loops pull off and a fly line will break long before
a well tied nail knot will fail.

If it's the loop you're after I'd recommend a nail knot and a
small perfection loop instead of a braided loop and super glue.
