I use the double uni and the blood knot....I did not have a failure last year and I use the exact same braid and flouro you use...

I use back-to-back uni's and haven't had it slip out yet - FireLine and Silver Thread floro.

I've heard suggested from different sources to double the superline first, then tie the uni-uni.  I've never bothered and have had satisfactory results.

I have used The Stren Knot. It is suppose to be stronger than the back to back uni.
