Use a uni knot to uni knot connection. Tied right it never fails.

I pretty much stick to four knots. Palomar for mono to snaps / fast links. Alberto, uni to uni or overhand to uni for braid to mono. That's about it and Alberto and Palomar are the go to comb most of the time.

I've tied different brainds and mono for many tasks. I can never beat the uni-to-uni, or the NoName knots.

However, the triple surgeons knot is very strong and works very well if not using a loop (bimini, spider hitch, or other loop).

All the best.
