Fluorocarbon knot to swivel

[TLG]

I've used the palomar knot to tie fluorocarbon to the fly. Suggestions on the best knot to use when tying the fluoro tippet to a swivel where you can't use a palomar knot. Thanks for your help.

I use an improved clinch if I can live with a little loss in strength. If I want a 100% connection I us a non-slip mono loop knot.

2x through the eye of the swivel forming a loop ---then wrap the tag 4 times around the doubled side of the loop

i use that knot when tying tippet to the perfection loop in my leader then use a clinch at the fly----if snagged and broken off, it almost always breaks at the fly saving having to tie a new tippet

So why can't you use the palomar?

Here are some of my favorite knot links:

What tailingloop said! A fine knot for strength.
