Loop Knots

[Luke]

Just wondering what loop knots people use for lures- Homer Rhode or perfection loop or any others and if they know which one has the strongest knot strength and breaking strain?
Cheers Luke

Have you tried a " Grinner knot " ?, simple and very strong, let me know if you want a URL diagram from a UK site.
