I will give another yeah to what Tube Dude says. My experience with that comes from Flaming Gorge, those fish have seen everything made and a horizontal presentation may mean a hit or a boring yawn from a selective fish. I use a polamar knot. It is difficult to tie on a large jig, but it too has near 100% knot strength. Plus it can be tied in-line for drop shoting which has proven effective on those picky macks on the gorge through the ice.
