Listening to John Wilson at The CLA Game Fair last weekend, he was very dismissive of the blood knot and it's derivatives.

I've used the blood knot, full, half, tucked etc since I started fishing 40+ years ago.

Will someone please update me on the best knots to use, particularly when attaching eyed hooks, swivels etc (using mono up to about 8lbs)??

Ta ever so!
