I can get 14 pairs of reading glasses at the dollar store for that price
The knot tied in the top video was always called a fishermen's knot when I was taught as a kid and we still refere to it as such.
My eyes and the Palomar knot work well together.
Palomar knot all the way for me, it won’t slip and will stay on top of a jig fished horizontally. Otherwise improved clinch/fisherman’s knot. The problem with the clinch is that it can slip under heavy pressure/tight drag, I’ve had a few uncurl on very large lake trout this year and then is when I switched to the Palomar with no issues.
I have never heard of a improved clinch knot slipping? Were you using one of the really slick super braid lines? I have never had one slip with mono. If it slipped with mono it wasn’t tyed correctly. I believe I have heard of it slipping with a super braid line though. I now mainly use the Palomar knot also, especially with braid.
