Your go to knot for …….

A Palomar knot.

B Double uni. Bimini twist is stronger but takes a lot of practice and easy to mess up in a rocking boat, or during a hot bite.
 
Trilene knot for fluoro to lure.
Palomar knot for braid to lure.
FG knot for braid to fluoro leader.

San Diego jam knot if throwing a heavy lure like a glide bait or wake bait.

We had a surgeon from west TX teach us that SD JAM but he called it the "Comanche Death Knot". " the more they struggle , the tighter it gets"! Ha! I use that to attach braid to popping corks.
 
A…. Kreh loop knot

B…. Slim Beauty knot but I only push one strand of braid thru the double loop. I add a couple of half hitches with the braid for paranoia!!
I like the SB because it reminds me of the Bimini knot which reminds me of tarpon fishing
