This is an excellent idea to put this topic at the top of the page.
I'll chime in on some of my posts if anyone wants to try some of my crazy ideas.

How about the best knot for joining braid and mono?

Good idea. I'd like that Braid/Nylon knot myself.

I like the "Blood Knot" for Mono to Braid.
Here is a good site for lots of knots:

I use the uni-to-uni knot. It's super simple and very strong. I learned it from Larry Dahlberg, the "Hunt for Big Fish" guy on TV. If it can hold the fish he catches, it'll hold the ones I catch.

Mostly for attracting qualities.
