Knot to use?

What kind of knot do you like to use while your musky fishing?

For the leader-to-line connection I use the Palomer knot.

I use the Palomar and double the line as shown on the link below from Power Pro. I make sure I wet the knot and I leave at least a one inch tag end.

Ditto: twice through the tackle first is what I do, too, especially since I'm typically tying onto a nice big solid-ring swivel at the end of a leader.
