In case you haven't tried the Pitzen, it's strong, small, easy to tie and telegraphs with a click when it's tied right.

Jackster, that's an interesting knot. I hadn't heard of it before you brought it up, so I just Googled it [link to one of the easier demonstrations:
http://www.marinews.com/Pitzen-Knot-347.php]. Some say it's akin to the
Duncan, but I'm not familiar with either well enough to know. I noticed one reference discouraged its use with so-called "superlines". If that includes fluoro tippit, I'd be interested in your or others' experience with how well the
Pitzen Knot holds in fluoro (same question for the
Davy Knot, discussed below).
BTW, the Poll is "Multiple Choice", so multiple selections can be made (however, I suspect that they all have to be selected initially, at one time).
