Hi

I am starting to use fluorcarbon more now. When making my loop for attaching my hooklink to a ring swivel is a simple overhand knot good enough or should you make it a full figure of 8 knot?

Thanks

Inly loop I'll used now. Never had one go like I use to have with figure 8 knots. In the last 7 years I can't remember one going on me.
