1. **Double the Line**: Start by cutting a length of fluorocarbon line and doubling it back to form a loop.
2. **Thread the Loop**: Pass the loop through the eye of the hook or lure.
3. **Tie a Simple Overhand Knot**: With the loop through the eye, tie a simple overhand knot, but do not tighten it yet. You should have a loop hanging out.
4. **Pass the Hook Through the Loop**: Take the hook or lure and pass it through the loop you just made.
5. **Tighten the Knot**: Wet the knot with some water or saliva, then pull on both ends of the line to tighten the knot securely. Trim any excess line if needed.
The Palomar knot retains about 90% of the line's strength, making it ideal for fluorocarbon, which is often used for its low visibility and abrasion resistance.
Another great option is the Improved Clinch Knot, especially if you're tying fluorocarbon to a swivel or terminal tackle. It’s simple and effective:
1. **Thread the Line**: Pass the end of the line through the eye of the hook or swivel.
2. **Wrap the Line**: Wrap the tag end around the standing line 5-7 times.
3. **Thread the Tag End**: Take the tag end and thread it back through the small loop that was created near the eye.
4. **Tighten the Knot**: Wet the knot and pull on both the standing line and the tag end to tighten.
Both knots are excellent choices, but the Palomar knot is particularly favored for its strength and ease of tying, especially with the slippery nature of fluorocarbon. Happy fishing!
