Interesting. I was expecting only FG and double uni as common knots to use.

I do FG at home, alberto while out fishing. Double uni when rushing.

I’m much the same, I set up my rods that are bigger than 8lb at home with FG’s, 8lb and under is double uni. If I need to re-tie while on the water I’ll tie a double uni, I have to keep the time concentrating on tying line to a minimum or I get seasick

I reckon the most testing condition is when the fish are biting hot, you got busted and need to retie asap while your mate is catching one after another :rf:
Never really had that problem yet Sebb - I normally have a spare rod ready to go while re rigging

FG knot for everything for me atm, recently did some heavy fishing where we used PR knots for the leader so might have to learn how to tie them if I start doing that sort of thing more regularly
