Very informative, but my favourites not there! The tried and tested "tucked half blood knot". My go to knot for tying swivels and hooks on. Very rarely have a problem with them Made me laugh in France when my Daughters boyfriend was trying to tie one. He was holding the hook and carefully wrapping the tag end around the mainline. I said to him "just hold the hook and rotate it 5 or 6 times, it has the same effect and it's a lot, lot quicker" He'll learn

I remember my now wife saying this to me on our first date........

Korda lines are relatively poor IMO. Stick with Gardner, they do great lines. The Pro and GT-HD options are really nice lines. Yes, keep the old line as backing, it's a complete waste of money otherwise.
