Default bass lure knots?

kinda new to bass fishin but I got the fever. I was wondering whats the best way to attach lures to line? I have a problem with arthritus in my knuckles so I usually tie a small clip swivel for fast changing of lures, I have caught a few this way, but is this a good way? the lures don't seem to work so well like this?

I always usa a Palomer knot. It is strong and is a low stress knot on the line. I have never broke off this knot.

Improved Clinch(I modified a little) and Palomer are the only 2 I use for fresh or salt fishing.

Don't forget to wet the knot before you cynch it up or it can burn/weakin your knot.

I always use the palomar knot!!!!! I have straigtenes out hooks on 3/8oz walleye jigs with 6lb test with this knot, and it is the best choice for fireline and other superlines IMO.

go with a palomar knot it is strong. it is the best knot for most fishing. If you want a loop knot use a king sling
