With these factors in mind, can braided fishing line (like Berkley
Fireline) be tied directly to regular mono, or are the two best joined
with a swivel?


Tie braid to mono with a uni to uni knot. I do it all the time. Swivels
are too visible to fish.


Fishing test.

What's a bimini?

Where a former congressman went to avoid censure?

2 - It's called a Bimini Twist and makes a loop with a double twist -
very popular in billfishing circles.


Tuna also.

That's a winner.

An insane knot. While tying it, you appear to be playing cat's cradle (the
string game) with yourself.

A knot used to double up a line. I hardly have use them. They're a pain in
the arse to tie.
