can anybody give a link for a bimini twist or how would yall attach braid to braid

[WestEndAngler]

I use a blood knot or nail knot... Let me look for a diagram.

A bimini will work as well but since I flyfish this is what I use in the field.

You can even use a glue on the knot to give it extra strength....

what would be the best knot for braid to braid connection

Isn't a Bimi a bit overkill? Plus they look hard as heck to tie. Mabey try a uni-uni?

what size lines are you wanting to join?

80 lb power pro to 80lb power pro i was given two 500 yard spools and want to put them on a penn 6/0

I usually use the albright knot, but a I have used a blood knot and they are both very effective. Check out that animatedknot.com site, it has some real good info and instructions, not just for fishing knots.

M.M.

why not top shot it with 80# mono after spooling with 500yds of PP. If you are fishing the surf, the mono helps out better with abrasion resistance over the pp.

I use Albright to albright and have never had a problem

[fishingcowboy]

thanks guys the only reason i want to attach the two together and then put a top shot of80# mono is that i got spooled last summer it was a big hammerhead off the beach
