Depends on the type of line, the line's diameter and what I am connecting with the knot.

Bimini Twist in the braid (30+ twists). Tie in your barrel swivel to the braid with Offshore Barrel Knot.

I would consider using a mono shock leader crimped to barrel swivel and another barrel swivel crimped at end of the mono.

Than Haywire Twist your wire leader to the mono barrel.

Sorry, I forgot about this post. ::)

As for your question Ed, I don't fish for sharks, so I never rigged for them.  What Phil said sounds write on the money to me. t^

I use the Palomar knot 90% of the time.  I think it is because of the time I spent freshwater bass fishing.  Other than that I use the braid knot.
