please give me the best knot for connecting two lines…
the same and different types of line…….
i mainly go fishing on the seafront….. so what knot should i use to connect lines

thanks in advance

depends on the sizes of the line your trying to join. If they are not the same size rty an albright. If they are both close to the same a bloodknot is your best bet. Both hold fast. You will need to trim the extra line left after. try this website…. http://www.troutlet.com I think they have an animated step by step page.

The 2 best are the blood knot and the surgeons knot.
I am not a fan of tieing 2 lines directly together, I tie a swivel in between using a palomar knot when possible.
Good Luck and Tight Lines

Same diameter = nail knot
Different diameter = offset nail knot
