Jigging Question

[tsouthward]

When jigging for tuna with butterfly jigs, how do you attach the jig to your fluoro or mono leader?

I used a regular old fishermans knot, held up fine on up to 200lb bluefin. Jimmy K. on TAT-TUNA showed me a nail knot when I jigged with him a couple of weeks ago, held up fine also, just a little harder to tie.
