I struggle a wee bit with clinch knots when using a bushy fly, so I'm experimenting with the uni knot and penny knot, and have seen the double davy recommended too.

I've even bought a wee cheap pair of reading glasses to help out!.

What do you guys prefer?.

3 turn uni when I have enough tippet otherwise a 1/2 blood which has failed me many times   ;D ;D

Love the honesty Fred! Over on some other forums, lots of folk have never had their chosen method fail!  ;D

I like the reassuring click that the penny knot gives once cinched down. Had a casting lesson with John Milne a couple of weeks back, the knot he did was incredibly quick, so quick I struggled to follow it! Going out with him on the Gryffe next week, need to pay more attention!.
